Note that KVM switch brands other than Raritan’s may or may not properly handle PS/2-to-Sun 
signals. 
On target servers running the Solaris operating system, set the mouse acceleration value to 
exactly 1 and threshold to exactly 1. Set this at the graphical user interface (shown below), or 
with the command line “xset mouse a t” where “a” is the acceleration and “t” is the threshold.

Apple Macintosh Settings 
For target servers running an Apple Macintosh operating system, while using USTIP to access 
and control your target server, you must set the USTIP client (Raritan Remote Client) to “single 
cursor” mode. Dual cursor mode is not supported, and the two mouse pointers will not appear in 
sync if you attempt to control a Macintosh server via USTIP in dual cursor mode. 
 
Configuring Network Firewall Settings 
If you wish to access USTIP through a network firewall, your firewall must allow communication 
on TCP Port 5000. Alternatively, USTIP can be configured to use a different TCP port of your 
own designation (see Chapter 3: Administrative Functions, Network Configuration). 
In order to take advantage of USTIP's web-access capabilities, the firewall must allow inbound 
communication on TCP Port 443 – the standard TCP port for HTTPS communication. In order to 
take advantage of USTIP's redirection of HTTP requests to HTTPS (so that users may type the 
more common, "http://192.168.0.192", instead of "https://192.168.0.192"), then the firewall must 
allow inbound communication on TCP Port 80 – the standard TCP port for HTTP communication.
