AlterPath OnSite Administrator’s and User’s Guide
Parameters for Configuring User Accounts
The OnSite administrator configures user accounts by assigning parameters
that are described in the following table.
administrator-
assigned
User account optionally configured by
an administrator to be able to access
devices connected to the ports of the
AlterPath OnSite. Regular users can
access only those devices that are
connected to ports which they have
permission to access. Users with
permission to access ports or perform
certain other tasks through the OnSite
are referred to as “authorized users.”
Authorized remote users can access
either KVM or serial ports through the
Web Manager, and authorized local
users can access only KVM ports
through the OSD. Default Access
Privileges for generic users are: No
access. Administrators must configure
access to ports for any added users.
Note:If an administrator assigns a
regular user to the “admin” group, that
user becomes an administrative user
who can also perform the same
administrative functions on the Web
Manager as the “admin” user, as
described above.
