Security
The PRIMUX CAT5 KVM System is designed with security to prevent unauthorized use of the CPUs connected as determined by the administrator. Up to 16 users may be given access to the system, each with individual limitations of use. Only the administrator or user with administrative privileges can activate or deactivate the security features on each user port. Finally, the administrator can set a maximum idle time value after which the current user will be logged out and the login splash screen displayed again. The current security status, idle time out, and scan dwell time are all saved and will be restored whenever power to the User Station is cycled OFF, then ON. To reset the administrator’s password call NTI and have the device serial number of the PRIMUX User Station available.
