Users and groups

Efficient rights management

The KVM switch administrates up to 256 user accounts and the same number of
user groups. Each user of the system can be a member of up to 20 user groups.
Both a user account and a user group can be assigned different rights.
ADVICE:
With appropriate planning and implementation of user groups as well as
the rights assigned to them, you can manage rights almost completely via user
groups.
This allows you to change user rights quickly and efficiently.
