The embedded web user interface supports strong security (authentication, encryption, and
firewall support) since it enables remote server configuration and control.
The user interface
presented by the embedded web user interface shall authenticate the user before allowing a
web session to be initiated.
Encryption using 128-bit SSL is supported. User authentication is
based on user id and password.
The GUI presented by the embedded web server authenticates the user before allowing a web
session to be initiated.
It presents all functions to all users but grays-out those functions that the
user does not have privilege to execute. (For example, if a user does not have privilege to
power control, then the item shall be displayed in gray-out font in that user’s UI display).
The
web GUI also provides a launch point for some of the advanced features, such as KVM and
media redirection.
These features are grayed out in the GUI unless the system has been
updated to support these advanced features.
A partial list of additional features supported by the web GUI includes:
Present all the Basic features to the users.
Power on/off/reset the server and view current power state.
