Authentication, 4 Network Hosts

Page 49 highlights

4. Serial Port, Host, Device and User Configuration Note: There are no specific limits on the number of users you can set up, nor on the number of users per serial port or host. Multiple users (Users and Administrators) can control/monitor the one port or host. Similarly, there are no specific limits on the number of groups. Each user can be a member of multiple groups (in which case, they assume the cumulative access privileges of each of those groups). A user does not have to be a member of any groups. If the user is not a member of the default user group, then they will not be able to use the management console to manage ports. While there are no specific limits, the time to reconfigure does increase as the number and complexity increases. As such, the recommended aggregate number of users and groups should be kept under 250. The Administrator can also edit the access settings for any existing users: • Select Serial & Network: Users & Groups and click Edit to modify the user access privileges. • Alternately, click Delete to remove the user or click Disable to temporarily block any access privileges. Note: For more information on enabling the SDT Connector so each user has secure tunneled remote RPD/VNC/Telnet/HHTP/HTTPS/SoL access to the network-connected hosts, refer 6. SSH Tunnels and SDT Connector. 4.3 Authentication Refer to Chapter 9.1 - Remote Authentication Configuration for authentication configuration details. 4.4 Network Hosts To monitor and remotely access a locally networked computer or device (referred to as a host), you must identify the host and specify the TCP or UDP ports/services that will be used to control that host: Selecting Serial & Network: Network Hosts presents all the network-connected hosts that have been enabled for access, as well as the related access TCP ports/services. 49

4. Serial Port, Host, Device and User Configuration
Note:
There are no specific limits on the number of users you can set up, nor on the number of users per serial port or host. Multiple users
(Users and Administrators) can control/monitor the one port or host. Similarly, there are no specific limits on the number of groups. Each
user can be a member of multiple groups (in which case, they assume the cumulative access privileges of each of those groups). A user
does not have to be a member of any groups. If the user is not a member of the default user group, then they will not be able to use the
management console to manage ports.
While there are no specific limits, the time to reconfigure does increase as the number and complexity increases. As such, the recommended
aggregate number of users and groups should be kept under 250.
The Administrator can also edit the access settings for any existing users:
• Select
Serial & Network: Users & Groups
and click
Edit
to modify the user access privileges.
• Alternately, click
Delete
to remove the user or click Disable to temporarily block any access privileges.
Note:
For more information on enabling the SDT Connector so each user has secure tunneled remote RPD/VNC/Telnet/HHTP/HTTPS/SoL
access to the network-connected hosts, refer 6. SSH Tunnels and SDT Connector.
4.3 Authentication
Refer to Chapter
9.1 - Remote Authentication Configuration
for authentication configuration details.
4.4 Network Hosts
To monitor and remotely access a locally networked computer or device (referred to as a host), you must identify the host and
specify the TCP or UDP ports/services that will be used to control that host:
Selecting
Serial & Network: Network Hosts
presents all the network-connected hosts that have been enabled for access, as
well as the related access TCP ports/services.
