The Permission Attribute Value is made up of two parts; the IP address of the B064-Series KVM Switch a user will access and a string that indicates the access rights the user has on the B064-Series KVM Switch at that IP address. The following rules apply to the makeup of the permission attribute value entry:

An ampersand (&) connects the B064-Series KVM Switch’s IP address with the access rights string.

The access rights string is made up of various combinations of the following characters: c w j p l v s. The characters can be entered in upper or lower case. The meaning of the characters is provided in the Permission String Characters table, below.

The characters in the access rights string are separated by a comma

(,). There are no spaces before or after the comma.

If a user has access rights to more than one B064-Series KVM Switch, each permission segment is separated by a semicolon (;).

There are no spaces before or after the semicolon.
