User credentials you use to log in to the Dominion User Station can be different
or identical to the user credentials you enter for accessing the port information
of any KX III KVM switch.
User Station's user credentials:
User credentials for logging in to the User Station determine the
tasks/permissions you are allowed to perform on the User Station, but not the
tasks/permissions you can perform on KVM switches and KVM ports.
For example, user credentials of the User Station determine whether you can
add or remove the data of KVM switches, or whether you can back up and
restore the User Station settings.
For detailed information on what you can do on a User Station, see
Privileges
(on page 141).
KVM Switch's user credentials:
User credentials entered for KVM switches determine the tasks/permissions
you are allowed to perform while accessing computer devices connected to
KVM ports (that is, target servers).
For example, user credentials for the KVM switch determine whether you can
access all KVM ports on this KVM switch, or whether you can perform the
virtual media or power control function on a KVM port/target server.
This is why users of the User Station CANNOT share user credentials of KVM
switches, and each user must enter and save his or her own user credentials for
KVM switches respectively. See
Editing KVM Switches
(on page 31). However,
if LDAP is enabled, and you can add your KVM switches with a special setting
that makes single sign-on possible. See
Adding KVM Switches
(on page 29), and
also check the LDAP help for more details. See
LDAP
(on page 145).
For detailed information on what you can do with a KVM port/target server,
see the user documentation for KX III KVM switches, which is accessible from
the KVM switch's application or KX III section of Raritan website's
Support page
Examples:
The following table illustrates different combinations of user credentials for
User Stations and KVM switches.
