Role
Permissions
Note: For ordinary
users, in addition to
enabling Device
Management, Port
Configuration, and
Maintenance
permissions, the
user must also be
given those rights
for each device and
port that he will be
allowed to manage.
See Device
Assignment,
page 113 for details.
110
There are three categories: Super Administrator,
Administrator and User. There is no limitation on the number
of accounts that can be created in each category.

The Super Administrator is responsible for the overall
installation configuration and maintenance; user
management; and device and port assignments. The
Super Administrator's permissions (see page 110) are
automatically assigned by the system and cannot be
altered.

The default permissions for Administrators include
everything except Force to Grayscale, but the permissions
can be altered for each Administrator by checking or
unchecking any of the permissions checkboxes.

The default permissions for Users include the Win, and
Java clients, but the permissions can be altered for each
User by checking or unchecking any of the permissions
checkboxes.

Enabling Device Management allows a user to configure
and control the settings for overall CS1708i / CS1716i
operations (see Device Management, page 115).

Enabling Maintenance allows a user to perform all the
Maintenance operations available under the Maintenance
tab (see Maintenance, page 141).

Enabling Windows Client allows a user to download the
Windows Client AP software, and access the CS1708i /
CS1716i with it, in addition to (or instead of) the browser
access method.

Enabling Port Configuration allows a user to configure and
control the settings for individual ports (see Port
Configuration, page 102).

Enabling System Log allows a user to access the system
log (see Log, page 139).

Enabling Java Client allows a user to download the Java
Client AP software, and access the CS1708i / CS1716i
with it, in addition to (or instead of) the browser access
method.

Enabling User Management allows a user to create,
modify, and delete user and group accounts.

Enabling View Only limits users to only being able to view
the display of connected devices. They cannot control port
access, nor can they input any keyboard or mouse signals
to the devices they view.

Force to Grayscale forces the user's view of the remote
display to be in grayscale. This can speed up I/O transfer
in low bandwidth situations.
