About User Management

 

The User Manager Settings

 

 

 

The User Management menu is used to add new users, change user privileges and delete users.

GUEST ACCESS

The Content Server supports guest access to view conferences. If you want guest users to view conferences without having to log in to the Content Server:

Select Allow Guest Access checkbox in Site Settings, and

Select Allow access to all users checkbox in Conference permissions for all or some conferences.

With guest access, users only need to enter the Content Server IP address in their browser and they do not have to authenticate at all to view those conferences. In this case, you only need to add users who will have to authenticate (log in) to get special privileges, such as administrators and owners.

AUTHENTICATED ACCESS

The Content Server also supports authenticated access to view conferences. If you want only authenticated users to view conferences, make sure that the Allow Guest Access checkbox is deselected in Site Settings . In this case, you have to add all users who need access to view, edit or administer content (through the Add Users page). If you select Allow access to all users checkbox in Conference permissions, those conferences will be available for viewing by all authenticated users.

AUTHENTICATED AND GUEST ACCESS

It is also possible to have a mixture of guest and authenticated access for viewing conferences. If you want some conferences to be available to everybody, and other conferences restricted to authenticated users:

Select Allow Guest Access checkbox in Site Settings, and ...

Select Allow access to all users checkbox in Conference permissions for conferences you want guests to see.

Add users and/or groups who need to login to the Content Server (through the Add Users page) and then enter user- or group names in Conference permissions for conferences that only those authenticated users should be able to view.

Depending on the authentication method chosen in Site Settings, administrators can add local users (who have been created on the local computer) or users (or groups) authenticated via LDAP.

There may be too many users to be displayed on a single page with the selected number of users displayed per page. Go to the other pages here.

By clicking on User Name, Display Name, and User Role you may change the sorting order.

Click here to add new users. Details on this can be found on the next page.

Click here to delete the users selected.

Select users to be deleted. Use the checkbox above the column to select all users.
