Types of Users

14  

The KVM/net support three types of users: 

•

Predefined administrators who can administer the KVM/net and its 
connected devices

•

Optionally added users who can act as administrators of the KVM/net and 
its connected devices

•

Optionally added users who can act as administrators of connected devices 
or regular users. 

As summarized in the following table, two accounts, root and admin, are 
configured by default and cannot be deleted. The default “admin” account can 
add regular user accounts to allow other users to act as administrators of 
connected devices. An administrator can also choose to add regular users to 
the “admin” group, which enables the regular users to perform KVM/net 
administrative functions. The following table lists the responsibilities of each 
type of user and provides the default password for each.
