User Management

The User Management page allows Super Administrators and Administrators to create, modify and delete users and groups, as well as assign attributes to them. The User Management icon will not show up in User’s OSD screens, as they do not have access to this feature.

The User Management Main Page

The page is organized into two main areas. All users and groups appear in the panel on the left side of the screen. The large panel on the right side of the screen provides the User Management settings for the selected User/Group. When you access the User Management page for the first time, a screen similar to the one below appears:

Both the Users List and Groups List can be expanded and collapsed in the same way as the Port Selection list. If the list is expanded, click the minus symbol (–) next to the Users/Groups icon to collapse it. If the list is collapsed, click the plus symbol (+) next to the icon to expand it.

The icon next to the user will have two black bands for Super Administrators, one red band for Administrators and no band for Users.

For user accounts, the large main panel shows the user’s name, the description that was given when the account was created and whether the account is currently active or disabled.

For group accounts, the large main panel shows the group’s name and the description that was given when the group was created. The Status column is inactive.

Located below the Users/Groups list are settings that allow you to filter which Users/Groups will be displayed.

Below the main panel on the right side of the screen are buttons that can be used to manage users and groups.

Users - Adding Users

There is a pre-installed Super Administrator account that can be used to set up the B064-Series KVM Switch. The Username for this account is administrator and the password is password. For security purposes, we strongly recommend changing this account.

To add a user, do the following:

1.Highlight Users in the Users list on the left side of the screen.

2.Click the Add button at the bottom of the main panel. The User notebook opens, with the User tab selected:
