About Managing Users

The
Users
menu is used to add new users, change user privileges
and delete users.
Guest Access
The Content Server supports guest access to view conferences. If
you want guest users to view conferences without having to log in to
the Content Server:
Select
Allow Guest Access
checkbox in
Site Settings,
Select
Allow access to all users
checkbox in
permissions
for all or some conferences.
With guest access, users only need to enter the Content Server IP
address in their browser and they do not have to authenticate at all
to view those conferences. In this case, you only need to add users
who will have to authenticate (log in) to get special privileges, such as
administrators and owners.
Authenticated Access
The Content Server also supports authenticated access to
view conferences. If you want only authenticated users to view
conferences, make sure that the
Allow Guest Access
deselected in
Site Settings
. In this case, you have to add all users
who need access to view, edit or administer content (through the
Add Users
page). If you select
Allow access to all users
in
Conference
permissions, those conferences will be available for
viewing by all authenticated users.
Authenticated and Guest Access
It is also possible to have a mixture of guest and authenticated
access for viewing conferences. If you want some conferences
to be available to everybody, and other conferences restricted to
authenticated users:
Select
Allow Guest Access
checkbox in
Select
Allow access to all users
checkbox in
Permissions
for conferences you want guests to see.
Add users and/or groups who need to login to the
Content Server (through the
Add Users
enter user- or group names in
Conference Permissions
for conferences that only those authenticated users
should be able to view.
Depending on the authentication method chosen in
administrators can add local users (who have been created on the
local computer) or users (or groups) authenticated via LDAP.
