Chapter 4. Administrator Utility

Port Management

KM0832 port access rights for users and groups are set on a port-by-port basis, giving administrators a high degree of control over which KVM ports users can access and how they access the KVM ports. To enable users to access KVM ports, you must first configure the user access rights for each KVM port. By default, all super administrators and administrators have full access to all KVM ports.

Hint: Adding users to groups streamlines KVM port configuration by allowing you to assign port access to whole groups of users at one time.

In this section we will discuss how to:

ŠSet port access rights for users and groups

ŠConfigure KVM port settings and assign names to KVM ports

ŠRestore KVM port defaults

Accessing Ports
