VNC (Virtual Network Computing)

VNC is software that is used for remote desktop application. An engineer from JDSU introduced me to VNC. We can use VNC to control another desktop. It is very simple, just connect your desktop and remote desktop with cross cable and play your VNC. In VNC application you just need to fill IP address, Subnet, and DNS of your remote desktop. After that... you can control your remote desktop easily.

To install VNC it is very easy as well. It has its free edition.

I use VNC to control Optical DWDM Analyzer. I use JDSU. It is a kind of Optical spectrum analyzer that is specially designed for DWDM measurement. We an use USB memory stick to copy measurement result and process it in our desktop. But... it is very risky. Why? USB memory stick is potential to spead virus to our analyzer. So, i prefer to use VNC to display the result and capture the result by "print screen-ing" it.

About "print screen-ing" i will talk later. It uses a special software : SNAGIT.
