Question: Hi, I'm looking at the Avocent AV3016 KVM. I see it shows the ability for 1 local and 1 remote user. Can both users work simultaneously on different servers? It's not clear from the description.
Answer: Thank you for your inquiry. We have confirmed with the manufacturer that this single user KVM would not allow for simultaneous access to different servers through the local analog and digital ports.
