Product overview

1.1 About Fujitsu KVM s4 Client Software
®
With Fujitsu KVM s4 client software, a cross-platform management application,
you can add and manage multiple switches and attached target devices. The
cross-platform design offers compatibility with most commonly-used operating
systems and hardware platforms. Each switch handles authentication and access
control individually, placing system control at the point of need.
The software utilizes browser-like navigation with a split-screen interface,
providing you with a single point of access for all switches. Use the software to
manage existing switches, install a new target device, or open a session to a
target device. Built-in groupings such as Devices, Sites, and Folders provide a
way to select the units to view. Use the search and sort capabilities to find any
unit.
