Raritan Engineering DOMINION KXII Switch User Manual


 
CHAPTER 8: USER MANAGEMENT 71
5. Set the IP ACL (optional). This feature limits access to the Dominion KX II device by
specifying IP addresses; it applies only to users belonging to a specific group, unlike the
IP
Access Control list feature which applies to all access attempts to the device (and takes
priority).
6. Click OK.
Note: Several administrative functions are available within MPC and from the Dominion KX II
Local Console; these functions are available only to members of the default ADMIN group.
Setting Permissions
Important: Checking the “User Management” checkbox allows the members of
the group to change the permissions of all users, including their own. Carefully
consider granting these permissions.
