Chapter 4. OSD Operation

Port Access

Clicking Port Access in the User Management dialog brings up a screen similar to the one below. All ports on the installation, including those of cascaded switches, are shown in the dialog box. (If necessary, collapsed switch icons can be expanded to view their ports.)

The port access function allows an administrator to define the selected user's access to the computers on a port-by-port basis.

For each user account, select a port and double-click on its port access type to cycle through the choices:

ŠFull: The user can view the remote screen and can perform operations on the remote system from his keyboard and monitor.

ŠView: The user can only view the remote screen, but cannot perform any operations on it.

ŠNone: No access rights. The port will not show up on the user's list on the Main Screen.

Repeat until access rights have been set for all the ports. The default is Full for all users on all ports.
