Chapter 4 Logging In; Overview; Local Console Login - ATEN KN8100V Series User Manual

Overview

KVM over IP switches can be accessed from a local console; an Internet
browser; a Windows application (AP) program; and a Java application (AP)
program.
No matter which access method you choose, the KVM over IP switch's
authentication procedure requires you to submit a valid username and
password. If you supply invalid login information, the authentication routine
will return an Invalid Username or Password, or Login Failed message. If you
see this type of message, log in again with a correct username and password.
Note: If the number of invalid login attempts exceeds a specified amount, a
timeout period is invoked. You must wait until the timeout period
expires before you can attempt to log in again. See Login Failures,
page 187 for further details.

Local Console Login

When the local console is attached and there is no user logged in, the KVM
over IP switch's login screen appears on the monitor:
Simply key in your valid Username and Password, then click Login to bring
up the Local Console Main Page. The Local Console Main Page is similar to
the Web Browser, WinClient and Java Client Main Pages. For a description of
the Web Browser Main Page, see page 61.
Note: For security purposes, the system will prompt you to change the login
password if this is the first time you are logging in as an administrator.
The password must be different from your login password.
