Video Optimization

To ensure optimal video quality you will want to configure the 2161DS Console Switch with the

same settings as the network switch. For example, if the 2161DS Console Switch is set to

Auto-

Negotiate, then the network switch must be set to Auto-Negotiate both speed and duplex. If the

2161DS Console Switch is set to 100MB - full duplex, then the network switch must be set to

100MB - full duplex.
Once you have made these changes, you may need to refresh/flush the Address Resolution Protocol

(ARP) tables in the network before you establish a new connection with the 2161DS Console

Switch, especially if the 2161DS Console Switch has been in use within the hour proceeding these

changes.
To refresh the ARP table, do one of the following:
Wait approximately 10 minutes for the ARP tables to rebuild automatically.
-or-
Clear the ARP table entry in a video session viewer workstation and ping the appliance at its IP

address. This can be done from a DOS window.

a

Type ARP -d 1.2.3.4

(where 1.2.3.4 is the IP address of the 2161DS Console Switch).

b

Type PING 1.2.3.4

If the PING is successful, the 2161DS Console Switch is ready for operation.

NOTE:

For further information on refreshing the ARP table refer to the Remote Console Switch Software

User’s Guide.

Mouse Acceleration

To adjust the mouse acceleration:

NOTE:

Dell highly recommends that all Microsoft® Windows® systems attached to the 2161DS Console

Switch use the default Windows PS/2 mouse driver.

Before a server can be connected to the 2161DS Console Switch, an adjustment to mouse

acceleration must be made. Follow the steps listed for each type of system.
For systems running the Windows NT® operating system (using default drivers):

1

From the desktop, select Start - Settings - Control Panel - Mouse.

2

Click the Motion tab.

3

Set the pointer speed to Slow. You will need to set this for any Windows NT user account that

will be accessing the NT system through the 2161DS Console Switch.
