The Administrator Configuration Terminal is a powerful tool that allows system administrators to directly interface with their KVM and KM to make configuration changes and customizations to that KVM or KM unit. Properly exiting the Terminal is key to maintaining system security and integrity, preventing unwanted changes.
When using the Administrator Configuration Terminal, your SKVM/SKM intercepts all keystrokes before relaying them to the computer. The terminal has an option labeled “Exit Terminal,” which will stop intercepting keystrokes but will not log out of the Terminal completely. This is for testing changes. The next time you try to enter the Terminal, you will not be prompted for a password. This is regardless of restarting the computer or closing your text application.
It is important that once you are done making all changes and ready to exit the Terminal completely, you power cycle the SKVM/SKM by unplugging it from power for 10 seconds and then plugging it back in. You will be prompted for a password next time you attempt to enter the Terminal.
