User Management – Port Access
The Port Access button at the bottom of the User Management Add
User and Edit User screens allow port access to be customized for each
account. Although user accounts can be created, edited and deleted
using both the Web Management Interface and the Remote OSD, the
only place Port Access settings can be edited is in the Remote OSD. In
this page, access can be toggled between three access types by clicking
on the field next to the corresponding port, or by highlighting the
desired port and using the [+] or [-] keys on the number pad of the
keyboard. By default, all accounts have Full Access to all computers on
the installation.

keyboard/mouse operations on the corresponding computer.
• ViewOnlyAccess:The user only has the ability to view the
corresponding computer’s video.

Network
The Network screenoftheremoteOSDallowsadministratorstosetthe
IPv4orIPv6networkparametersfortheKVMswitch.Inadditionto
the IP Address, Subnet Mask and Default Gateway, which can be set
usingthelocalconsoleOSD,theNetworkscreenoftheremoteOSD
allowsyoutosetfirewallaccessportsandtheDNSserveraddress.
These settings can also be configured using the Web Management
Interface.
Network – Access Ports
If a firewall is being used, these fields allow administrators to specify
port numbers that the firewall will allow. The firewall must be set to
allow access to these ports. If an invalid port number (or no port
number)isspecifiedinthefirewall,theKVMswitchwillnotbefound.
An explanation of the Access Port fields is given in the table:
Port Description
Program This is the port number that must be specified when
connecting to the KVM via the AP Windows or Java
client. The default is 9000.
HTTP This port number is for a browser login. The default is 80.
HTTPS This port number is for a secure browser login. The
default is 443.
Note: A different value must be set for each access port. If there is no
firewall, it doesn’t matter what these numbers are set to, since they
have no effect.
