Description

 

 

Select User/Group

“[Generic Users],” “admin,” and any administratively defined

 

users and groups are listed, along with the “Exit” option.

 

The Generic Users’ permissions apply to all users except for

 

“admin” and any users in the “admin” group. By default, the

 

Generic Users’ default permission is “No Access,” and no

 

KVM port permissions are defined. Therefore, by default, any

 

regular users that may be added cannot access any KVM ports.

 

The KVM/net administrator can configure access to KVM ports

 

for added regular users by:

 

• By selecting “[Generic Users]” and modifying the

 

permissions

 

- OR -

 

• By configuring specific permissions for one or more

 

individual users or groups (by selecting a single port or the

 

“Multiple servers” option)
