Select a group membership for the user. If you do not wish to create a group membership for the user, then select the default group account (Group). Note: Each user account can have only one group membership.

If you want to assign KVM port access rights to the user, follow the steps below. If not, skip ahead to . Note: There is no need assign port access rights for Super Administrators and Administrators; they have access to all KVM ports in the B060-032-8 installation, including those in cascaded/ daisy-chained KVM switches. There is also no need to assign access rights for a user to any KVM port that cascades a B060-032-8. However, you must assign access rights to KVM ports that cascade B007-008 KVM switches. When you assign access rights to a KVM port that cascades a B007-008 KVM switch, the access rights apply to all computers/servers connected to it. There will only be one port available to assign access to for daisy-chained KVM switches. Access assigned to this port will grant identical access to every daisy-chained KVM switch in the installation, as well as all ports on the daisy-chained KVM switches.

The User Information Web Page lists all KVM ports in the installation. KVM ports, whether on the root station, daisy-chained, or cascaded, are listed in order of position in the installation. Click to apply the type of access rights you wish to assign for the user to each KVM port. Note: Users granted access to a daisy-chained B060-032/B060-016-2 or a cascaded B007-008 will have access to all of the ports on that KVM. Users granted access to daisy-chained B060-032 or B060-016-2 KVMs will also have access to all lower-level KVMs in the daisy chain, as well as their corresponding ports.
