Administering Users of Connected Servers
34 AlterPath KVM/net Installation, Administration, and User’s Guide
During setup of the KVM/net, the installer connects the desired servers to the
ports as planned.
During configuration, the KVM/net administrator does the following, if
desired:
• Assigns aliases to ports to identify the connected servers.
• Assigns aliases to PMs to identify the location or types of devices being
managed.
• Creates accounts for users of connected devices.
• Specifies which ports each user can access and which type of access each
can have.
• Specifies an authentication method for access to the KVM/net and to all
KVM ports.
• Redefines keyboard shortcuts (hot keys) if desired.
• Redefines TCP port numbers used for accessing KVM ports, if desired.
See the following table for a list of related tasks and where they are
documented.
