Administration
Overview
Administrators can quickly and efficiently access servers, manage users and
groups, control port access, upgrade firmware versions, and perform many
other administrative functions. Login password protection and three-tier user
access ensure that unauthorized users cannot gain control of the servers in your
matrix KVM switch.
Naming Stations
To help distinguish one KVM switch from another in cascaded installations,
Super Administrators and Administrators can assign unique names to each
KVM switch.
To assign a station name to the KVM switch:
1. Click on the target station in the tree view to select it.
2. From the Administration menu, choose Station Management. The
Station Management screen appears.
3. Type a name in the Station Name field. Station names may be up to 15
characters long. Legal characters include: a–z, A–Z, 0–9, space, and
hyphen. Enter a unique name that will distinguish the KVM switch from
all other KVM switches in the installation.
4. Click Save.
5. To exit without saving changes, click any other menu or icon.
