KVM Mouse Settings
The Redirection Console handles mouse emulation from the local window to the remote screen using any of three methods. Only an administrator user has the rights to configure this option. To view the supported operating systems for mouse modes, see Supported operating systems for mouse modes.
To open the KVM Mouse Settings page, click .
Relative Positioning (Linux): Relative mode sends the calculated relative mouse position displacement to the server.
Absolute Positioning (Windows): The absolute position of the local mouse is sent to the server. This mode is recommended for Windows or later Linux releases.
Other Mode (SLES-11 OS Installation): This option sends the calculated displacement from the local mouse in the center position to the server.
Save: Save the configuration.
