Using Virtual Media 63
Using Virtual Media in a two-level cascade
configuration
For Virtual Media to work properly in a two-level cascade configuration, you must have:
• A console switch with Virtual Media as the primary console switch
• A console switch with Virtual Media as the secondary console switch
• An interface adapter with Virtual Media connecting each server to the console switch
For more information on cascading, see Cascading console switches (on page 25).
