Product Overview
Features and Benefits
Avocent AutoView 3008/3016 switches combine analog and digital technology to provide flexible
control of data center servers, and to facilitate the OA&M (operations, activation and maintenance)
of remote branch offices where trained operators may be unavailable. The AutoView 3008/3016
switches provide users with a significant reduction of cable volume, secure remote access and
flexible server management from anywhere at anytime.
The AutoView 3008/3016 KVM switch family has several options depending on the model:
a rack mountable keyboard, video and mouse (KVM) switch, configurable for analog (local) or
digital (remote) connectivity
support for VGA, SVGA, SGA and SXGA video
video resolutions up to 1600 x 1200 for local and remote users
accessibility to target devices across 10/100 LAN port(s)
cascading expansion; each AutoView switch supports up to 16 directly attached servers and
can conveniently scale to support more
Reduce cable bulk
With server densities continually increasing, cable bulk remains a major concern for network
administrators. The AutoView 3008/3016 switches significantly reduce KVM cable volume in the
rack by utilizing the innovative IQ module and single, industry-standard Unshielded Twisted Pair
(UTP) cabling or the Integrated Access Cable (IAC) cabling option. This allows a higher server
density while providing greater airflow and cooling capacity.
NOTE: All references to IQ modules in this document use the AVRIQ module as a default, except where
indicated differently. AutoView 3008/3016 switches support AVRIQ, DSRIQ, DSAVIQ and IAC modules.
The IQ and IAC modules are powered directly from the target device and provide Keep Alive
functionality when the switch is not turned on. The serial IQ module is a DCE device that provides
the primary interface between a serial device and an AutoView 3008/3016 switch. It provides
VT100 terminal emulation, break suppression and port history in a compact, convenient module.

Access the AutoView 3008/3016 switch via a standard TCP/IP network
The Avocent AutoView 3008/3016 switches provide agentless remote control and access. No
special software or drivers are required on the attached, or client, computers. The client connects to
the AutoView 3008/3016 switch using an Internet browser.

NOTE: Ports 80 and 443 are configurable by the appliance administrator.
In a typical configuration, as shown in Figure 2.2, the users computer is located outside of the
firewall, and the AutoView 3008/3016 switch resides inside the firewall.
Figure 2.2: Typical AutoView 3008/3016 Switch Firewall Configuration
To configure the firewall:
To access the AutoView 3008/3016 switch from outside a firewall, configure your firewall to
forward ports 80, 443, 2068 and 8192 from its external interface to the KVM switch through the
firewall’s internal interface. Consult the manual for your firewall for specific port forwarding
instructions.
2068 Transmission of KVM session data (mouse & keyboard) or transmission of video for AutoView
3008/3016 switches
8192 Transmission of KVM session data (video) for AutoView 3008/3016 switches

To connect to the AutoView 3008/3016 switch OBWI from outside the firewall:
Open a web browser and enter the external IP address of the firewall. The AutoView 3008/3016
Explorer window will open and prompt you to login.
Verifying the Connections
AutoView 3008/3016 switch
The rear panel of the AutoView 3008/3016 switch features LEDs indicating the Ethernet
connection for LAN, as well as LEDs that indicate the target device status for each port.
Ethernet connection LEDs
The green LED, labeled Link, illuminates when a valid connection to the network is
established at the maximum supported rate and blinks when there is activity on the port.
The amber LED illuminates when an Ethernet connection is communicating at a slower rate.
If neither LED is illuminated, connection speed is at a rate of 10 Mbps.
IQ and serial IQ modules
Typically, IQ modules feature two green LEDs: a POWER LED and a STATUS LED.
The POWER LED indicates that the attached module is turned on.
The STATUS LED indicates that a valid selection has been made to an AutoView 3008/3016
switch.
The serial IQ module prevents a serial break from the attached device if the module loses power.
However, a user can generate a serial break with the attached device by pressing Alt-B after
accessing the Terminal Applications menu.
Cascading AutoView Switches
You can cascade other AutoView switch models to an AutoView 3008/3016 switch via a CAT 5
cable. In a cascaded system, an available target port on the AutoView 3008/3016 switch will
connect to an AVRIQ-PS/2 module or ACI (Avocent Console Interface) port on each cascaded
AutoView switch.
NOTE: In a cascaded configuration, the AutoView 3008/3016 switch must be at the top of the cascade.
To cascade multiple AutoView switches if your switch has an ACI port:
1. Using an appropriate length of CAT 5 cable, connect the ACI port on the cascaded switch to an
available port on your 3008/3016 switch.
2. Repeat step 1 for all additional cascaded AutoView switches.
