Managing Port Access Rights for Users

Super Administrators and Administrators can manage port access rights for Users from the User Information screen. (You do not need to assign port access rights for Super Administrators and Administrators. They have access to all KVM ports in the matrix KVM switch installation, including those in cascaded KVM switches.)

Please note that you do not need to assign access rights for a user to KVM ports that cascade matrix KVM switches. However, if a KVM port cascades a non- matrix KVM switch, you must assign access rights for a user to both that KVM port and those on the cascaded KVM switch. When you assign access rights for a user to a KVM port that cascades a Matrix Plus KVM adapter cable, the access rights apply to all KVM adapter cables in the chain.
