(Continued from previous page.)

3.Enter the required information in the appropriate fields. A description of each of the fields is given in the table below:

Field

Description

 

 

Group Name

A maximum of 16 characters is allowed.

 

 

Description

Additional information about the user that you may

 

wish to include. A maximum of 63 characters is

 

allowed.

 

 

Permissions

Permissions and restrictions for groups are set by

 

checking the appropriate boxes, as follows:

 

Š Windows Client allows group members to

 

download the Windows Client software, and access

 

the KVM Over the NETTM switch with it, in addition

 

to (or instead of) the browser access method.

 

Š Java Client allows group members to download the

 

Java Client software, and access the KVM Over the

 

NETTM switch with it, in addition to (or instead of)

 

the browser access method.

 

Š Power Management allows group members to

 

connect to Power on the Net™ devices.

 

Š View Only limits group members to only being able

 

to view the display of connected devices. They

 

cannot control port access, nor can they input any

 

keyboard or mouse signals to the devices they

 

view.

 

Š Force to Grayscale forces the group members’

 

view of the remote display to be in grayscale. This

 

can speed up I/O transfer in low bandwidth

 

situations.

 

Note: If a user has permissions in addition to the

 

ones assigned to the group, the user keeps those

 

permissions in addition to the group ones.

 

 

4.At this point you can assign users to the group by selecting the Members tab – the Members page is discussed on page 116. You can also assign the group’s port access rights by selecting the Devices tab – the Devices page is discussed on page 118.

Note: Optionally, you can skip this step now to add more groups and assign users to them, and come back to it later.

5.When your selections have been made click Save.

6.When the Operation Succeeded message appears, click OK.
