2. Is the user included in a group with KVM port permissions that allow or 

deny access to the port?

• If yes, access is allowed or denied.

• If no, skip to Decision 3.

Note: When a user is in more than one group, the most restrictive permission is 

used.

• If user jim is trying to access port 4 and he is a member of a group called 

linux_ca2 that has port 4 in a list of ports with read/write permissions, 
then jim is given read/write access.

• If user joan is trying to access port 4 and she is in a group called 

linux_ca3 that has port 4 in a list of ports with no permission, then joan is 
denied access. 

• If jerry and jill are trying to access port 4 and are in a group called 

linux_ca4 that has no specific port permissions defined, then their access 
requests are passed to decision 3.

• If joe, jennifer, jordan, jolanda, and jezebel are trying to access port 4 and 

are not in any group, then their access requests are passed to decision 3.

3. Does the Generic User have specific KVM port permissions that allow or 

deny access the port?

• If yes, access is allowed or denied.

• If no, go to decision 4.

• If user jerry is trying to access port 4 and the Generic User has port 4 in a 

list of ports with full access permissions, then jerry is given read writer 
and power management access.
