•To manually program a specific language, select a language and press <Enter> (or click the left mouse button).

•To automatically detect the language of the keyboard, select "AutoDetect" and press <Enter> (or click the left

mouse button) . The list will advance to the actual detected keyboard language and that language will be programmed.

Some keyboards don’t have a country code. In this case the selection will remain in the “AutoDetect” position and the default country code "00" will be programmed in the UNIMUX. If a specific country code is manually programmed, it will be the country code for the switch, regardless of the actual country code of the connected keyboard. The programmed country code is saved in memory and restored each time the UNIMUX is powered-ON. Because the CPUs that use country code (i.e. SUN CPUs) read it at boot time, it is necessary to boot the CPU(s) after programming the country code.

Security Configuration

The UNIMUX can be configured to either have no security enabled such that any user can connect to the UNIMUX, or have security enabled such that a user must have a login name and password in order to enter Command Mode and make a connection with an accessible CPU. Only the administrator has access to Security Configuration.

Within Security Configuration, the administrator has three options:

Function

Keystroke

 

 

Enable security just for the user port

U

that his currently connected through

 

 

 

Enable Global Security- security

E

enabled on all user ports

 

 

 

Disable Global Security- security

D

disabled on all user ports

 

 

 

Return to previous menu

Esc

 

 

Figure 34- Security Configuration

If Security is disabled for the port the user is connected to, and the user attempts to login to Command Mode with the command key, the login screen will include the instruction “Press F1 to Autologin”.

With security disabled, Autologin provides full access to all connected

CPUs and all users except the administrator must use it to login.

When security is enabled, Autologin is not available and the user must login using the administrator assigned user name and password. The user will have access to only those CPU ports as configured by the administrator.

If Global security is disabled, and security for the port the user is connected through is enabled, the user will only need to provide a username and password when connecting through that user port.

If Global security is enabled, the user must provide the username and password when connecting through any user port.
