6. Remote Console (KVM) Operation
The Remote Console is the redirected keyboard, video, and mouse of the remote host system
where the Intel
®
RMM4 module is installed. To use the Remote Console window of your
managed host system, the browser must include a Java* Runtime Environment plug-in. If the
browser has no Java* support, such as with a small handheld device, the user can maintain the
remote host system using the administration forms displayed by the browser.
Starting the Remote Console opens a new window to display the screen content of the host
system. The Remote Console acts as if the administrator were sitting directly in front of the
screen of the remote system. This means the keyboard and mouse can be used in the usual
way.
6.1 Launching the Redirection Console
The Remote Console is the redirected keyboard, video, and mouse of the remote host system
where the Intel
®
RMM4 module is installed . Launch the remote console KVM redirection
window from this page.
Note: If you are using Microsoft Windows Internet Explorer*, the Smart Screen is enabled, and
the system is on a network with no direct connectivity to the internet, it may take an extremely
long time to open a KVM window.
