User Guide

46.....Avocent® Universal Management Gateway Appliance Installer/User Guide
Administrators can configure ports, add users and manage power devices connected to the
appliance.
NOTE: The only configuration allowed for the Appliance Administrator group is adding or deleting
members.
To view admin Appliance Access Rights:
1. From the sidebar, click Users - Groups. The Group screen is displayed, showing the three
default user groups along with any groups that have been created.
2. Click on Appliance Admin under the Group Name heading. The content area will display the
Members screen listing all members belonging to the admin group (default member is admin).
Power User group
Members of the Power User group have access restricted to tasks for managing only the appliance.
Power users have no access to the ports or power management options, and share all of the
appliance access rights as admin except for configure user accounts and shell access, which are
permanently disabled for this group.
User group
Members of the user group have access to target devices, unless they are restricted by an
administrator, but have no access rights for the appliance. Administrators can add appliance
access rights and permissions and can add users to custom user groups to add permissions and
access rights as needed. By default, all selections on the Target Access and Target Rights screens
will be disabled.
NOTE: You can rename custom groups as desired. The role of the group, not the name, determines the
access and rights levels.
NOTE: Target Access is the most permissive and Target Rights are the most restrictive.
Group Target Access
After creating or modifying a group, click new group name and then select the Target Access tab to
manage targets for that group. Managed targets are displayed in the column on the left. Available
targets are displayed in the column on the right. If a filter is applied, only the targets matching the
filter name will be displayed. If groups are defined you can choose to display targets by group.
