About AVWorks
AVWorks is a cross-platform management application that allows you to view
and control the AutoView 1000R/2000R appliance and all its target devices. The
cross-platform design ensures compatibility with most popular operating
systems and hardware platforms. AutoView 1000R provides secure switch-based
authentication, data transfers and username/password storage. Each appliance
handles authentication and access control individually, placing system control at
the point of need.
AVWorks utilizes browser-like navigation with an intuitive split-screen
interface, providing you with a single point of access for all your servers. Using
AVWorks, you can manage your existing appliances, install a new switch or
launch a video session to a target device. Built-in groupings such as Devices,
Sites and Folders provide an easy way to select the units to view. Powerful
search and sort capabilities allow you to easily find any unit.
NOTE: Throughout the documentation and AVWorks user interface, you will see the word
“appliance” used generically to describe the AutoView 1000R/2000R switch.
