Chapter 1: Introduction 5

Only one administrative user can be connected to the MergePoint 5224/5240 SP manager at a time.

Regular users may be authorized for access to management features available on the connected SPs
or other types of target devices.

NOTE: The administrator may create and enable a custom security profile that has the override authorization
feature set, which causes all authenticated users to have all access to all target devices. For details, see Security
Profiles’ Effects on Users’ Actions
on page 14
.

Table 1.1 shows which management options are available on the supported SP types and on
supported devices without SPs.

NOTE: When a target device does not have an SP, Target Device Console, native IP and DirectCommand are
the only management options available by default. The target device types may be customized to make other
management features available.
