Note The User Name can contain from 1 to 127 alphanumeric characters (you can also use the special characters “-”, “_”, and “.” ).

There are no restrictions on the characters that you can use in the user Password (each can contain up to 254 characters). Only the first eight Password characters are used to make the password hash.

Specify which Group (or Groups) you want the user to join.

SSH pass-key authentication can be used. This is more secure than password based authentication. Paste the public keys of authorized public/private keypairs for this user in the Authorized SSH Keys field.

Check Disable Password Authentication if you wish to only allow public key authentication for this user when using SSH.

Check Enable Dial-Backin the Dial-in Options menu to allow an out-going dial-back connection to be triggered by logging into this port. Enter the Dial-Back Phone Number with the phone number to call-back when user logs in.

Check specific Accessible Hosts and/or Accessible Ports to nominate the serial ports and network connected hosts you want the user to have access privileges to.

If there are configured RPCs, you can check Accessible RPC Outlets to specify which outlets the user is able to control (that is, Power On/Off).

Click Apply. The new user can now access the Network Devices, Ports, and RPC Outlets you nominated as accessible. Plus, if the user is a Group member they can also access any other device/port/outlet that was set up as accessible to the Group.

Note There are no specific limits on the number of users you can set up; nor on the number of users per serial port or host. Multiple users (Users and Administrators) can control/monitor one port or host.

There are no specific limits on the number of Groups. Each user can be a member of a number of Groups (they take on the cumulative access privileges of each of those Groups). A user does not have to be a member of any Groups (but if the User is not even a member of the default user group. then he will not be able to use the Management Console to manage ports).

The time allowed to re-configure increases as the number and complexity increases. We recommend that you keep the aggregate number of users and groups under 250.

The Administrator can also edit the access settings for any existing users:

Select Serial & Network: Users & Groups and click Edit for the User to be modified.

Alternately click Delete to remove the User or click Disable to temporarily block any access privileges

Note For more information on enabling the SDT Connector so each user has secure tunneled remote RPD/VNC/Telnet/HHTP/HTTPS/SoL access to the network connected hosts, refer to Chapter 6.
