Note! Although users are members of the same group, they can have different access permissions to targets. For example, some could be users allowing them to control the targets, and some could be view only, letting them see the server screens, but without being able to take control. Also, users can be members of many different groups. In the example below, Sam belongs to the Finance group and also to the Marketing group.

Figure 9 Same user in different groups

The Marketing group could be associated with targets or target sets that the Finance group is not. Sam, being a member of both groups,

has access to targets to which both groups are associated. Phil only has access to targets associated with the Marketing group. Dave and Jon only have access to targets associated with the Finance group.

3..6 Access Services

The Access Services feature supports a wide range of remote access technologies. This enables the assignment of multiple services to a single target, so you have the option of in-band or out-of-band access to the same device.

KVM over IP is a hardware method of accessing and controlling a target. The other Access Services encompass gaining remote access and control of a target through the Internet or LAN network via Belkin Serial Console Server or third-party software. Both hardware and software methods of access are managed by OmniView IP 5000HQ.

OmniView IP 5000HQ also enables you to effortlessly integrate any new remote access technology into the remote access portal.

Besides the Belkin KVM-over-IP devices, you can connect to targets via the following Access Services through OmniView IP 5000HQ:

Belkin Serial Console Server is a 16-port RS232 device server.

Web browser-based web service

ILO - HP Integrated Lights-Out (iLO). HP ILO gives seamless access to HP servers.

RDP - Remote Desktop Protocol. RDP is a multi-channel protocol that allows a user to connect to a computer running Microsoft® Terminal Services.

SSH - Secure Shell. SSH is a network protocol that allows data to be exchanged using a secure channel between two computers. An SSH client program is typically used for establishing connections to an SSH daemon.
