The Avocent MergePoint Unity MPU8032-001 is a KVM over IP 32-Port Serial Console Switch with 8 Digital Path and single-AC input Power Supply.
This unique combination provides IT Administrators a complete remote management solution to access and control servers, networking equipment, and other devices found in data centers and branch offices.
The MergePoint Unity switches enhance the in-band management typically done through the NIC of IT equipment by providing secure and remote Out-of-band connections directly to the physical KVM, USB, and Serial ports. This unified approach enables IT administrators a faster method to diagnose, reconfigure, or restore equipment to meet SLA's and minimize downtime.

Question: How to activate the desktop of Avocent 8032. Which Keys should be strick?
Answer: Thank you for your inquiry,
"The MergePoint Unity switch comes equipped with two "point-and-click" interfaces: a local user interface (local UI) and a remote on-board web interface (OBWI). Using the configuration options provided by these interfaces, you can tailor the MergePoint Unity switch to your specific application, control any attached devices and handle all basic KVM or serial switching needs. The local UI and remote OBWI are almost identical. Unless specified, all information in this chapter applies to both interfaces.
You can choose any of the following keystrokes to be configured to open the local UI or to switch between the local UI and an active session: Print Screen, Ctrl + Ctrl, Shift + Shift, and Alt + Alt. You can close the local UI by pressing Esc or Print Screen.
Attached target devices in the local UI can be viewed and managed from two individual screens that are selected from the side navigation bar. For less than 20 targets, the Target List-Basic screen is recommended for navigation."
