Table 3-58 Virtual Media

Parameter	Description
VMM	Status of the VMM service.
Port	Port number for the VMM service. Value: 1 to 65535 Default value: 8208 NOTE: For security reasons, the browser disables some ports that are not used for web browsing. If these ports are used, the virtual media on the HTML5 Integrated Remote Console will be unavailable.
Encryption	Function for encrypting virtual media data before transmission. If this function is enabled, virtual media data is encrypted by using the AES128 algorithm before being transmitted between the server and the client. By default, virtual media encryption is disabled. For security purposes, enable this function. NOTE: Communication encryption applies only to Java Remote Console. The HTML5 Remote Console uses TLS for encryption and does not rely on the current page for encryption. In V3.01.12.01 and later versions, virtual media communication encryption is enabled by default and cannot be configured.
Maximum Sessions	Maximum number of concurrent users who are allowed to use the virtual media (virtual DVD-ROM drive or floppy disk drive) of the Remote Virtual Console. This parameter has a fixed value of 1.
Active Sessions	Number of users who are using the virtual media (virtual DVD-ROM drive or floppy disk drive) of the Remote Virtual Console.
