• User Attribute – A username, password and Access Control Attribute query for the appliance
user is made to the directory service. The Access Control Attribute is read from the user object
(the user account) in Active Directory.
If the KVM Appliance Admin value is found, the user is given appliance administrator access
to the appliance and any attached target devices for Query Mode (Appliance), or to any
selected target device for Query Mode (Target Device).
If the KVM User Admin value is found, the user is given user administrator access to the
appliance and attached target devices for Query Mode (Appliance), or to any selected target
device for Query Mode (Target Device).
If the KVM User value is found, the user is given User access to the appliance for Query Mode
(Appliance), or to any selected target device for Query Mode (Target Device).
NOTE: If none of the three values are found, the user is given no access to the appliance and target devices for
Query Mode (Appliance) or to any selected target device for Query Mode (Target Device), unless the user has
User Admin or Appliance Admin privileges to the appliance.
The following are examples showing how the KVM Appliance Admin and KVM User Admin
