Using your Rack-Mount Console KVM Switch
Passwords Page
The “Passwords” page allows the administrator to change user passwords,
enable or disable user accounts, and set the AutoLogout time.
NOTE: Only the administrator can change user passwords and settings.
Password Entry Fields
There is a “Change Password” button associated with each user; clicking
the button displays the password entry dialog. The administrator is required
to type the password and then confirm it; the new password will not be
accepted until the entries match (passwords are up to eight characters long,
and case-sensitive). Canceling the “Change Password” dialog will return to the
“Passwords” page without changing the existing password. In a daisy-chain
configuration, clicking “OK” automatically synchronizes this password with the
other consoles.
Enable Check Boxes
The check boxes next to the user names allow the administrator to disable user
accounts with a single mouse click. This removes the need to alter the security
settings of each host individually when it is necessary to remove a user’s access.
