2.5 Configuring Your Switch
Once all physical connections have been made, you will need to configure the switch for use in the overall
switch system. This can be accomplished using the serial interface, OBWI, OSCAR™ or the DSView™
management software. When configuring the switch using OSCAR, see Network Settings on page 34.
When using DSView management software, the RAK is required. See the applicable Installer/User Guide
for detailed instructions.
2.6 Setting Up the Built-in Web Server
Before using the OBWI to access the switch, the IP address must be specified using the 10101 setup port
(on the back panel of the switch), or through the local user interface (OSCAR). To use the switch UI, see
Local OSCAR™ User Interface on page 17.
2.7 Connecting to the OBWI Through a Firewall
For switch installations that use the OBWI for access, the following ports must be opened in a firewall, if
outside access is desired.
PORT FUNCTION
TCP 80 Used for the initial downloading of the Video Viewer. The appliance Admin can change this value.
TCP 443
Used by the web browser interface for managing the switch and launching KVM sessions. The appliance
Admin can change this value.
TCP 2068
Transmission of KVM session data (mouse and keyboard) or transmission of video on switches (requires
the RAK).
TCP/UDP 3211 Discovery (requires the RAK).
Table 2.5 OBWI Ports With a Firewall
The following figure and table provide a typical configuration where the user’s computer is located
outside of the firewall and the switch resides inside the firewall.
