1. Host Interface
The Host Interface enables the interface to which the mouse is connected.
You can choose "Auto" for automatic detection, "USB" for a USB mouse, or
"PS/2" for a PS/2 mouse.
Note: To use the USB and/or PS/2 interface, you need to connect the
correct cabling between the managed host and the managing device. If the
managed host has no USB keyboard support in the BIOS and you have
connected the USB cable, you will have no remote keyboard access during
the boot process of the host. If USB and PS/2 are both connected and you
select "Auto" as Host Interface, USB will be selected on boot up if available.
If USB is not available, "PS/2" will be selected
To get USB remote keyboard access during the boot process of the host,
the following conditions must be fulfilled:
• the host BIOS must have USB keyboard support
• the USB cable must be connected or selected in the
"Host Interface" option
2. PS/2 Keyboard Model
This lets you choose a keyboard layout from among "Generic 101-Key
PC" for a standard keyboard layout, "Generic 104-Key PC" for a standard
keyboard layout extended by three additional Windows keys, "Generic 106-
Key PC" for a Japanese keyboard, and "Apple Macintosh" for the Macintosh
computer keyboard. If a keyboard time-out is required, select the appropriate
option and set the desired time value in the input field below.
3. USB Mouse Type
