All KVM switches are listed in a tree structure in the Sidebar at the left of the

The Sidebar Tree Structure
Users are only allowed to see the devices and ports that they have access
permission for.
Ports and child devices can be nested under their parent devices.
Click the + in front of a device to expand the tree and see the ports/outlets
nested underneath it. Click the - to collapse the tree and hide the nested
ports/outlets.
A port’s ID number is displayed in brackets next to its icon.
Switches and ports that are on line have their monitor screen icons in
Green; the monitor screens are Gray for devices and ports that are offline.
Outlets that are On have their icons in Amber; the icons are Gray for
outlets that are Off.
To access and operate a port, double click its icon. Port operation details
are discussed in Chapter 13, Port Operation.
