Administrator Functions

The Secure Switch's Administrator Functions allow authorized Administrator to configure this product,
configure user authentication device filtering, and audit log data generated by the Secure Switch.
•
Log data audit:
Log data generating and recording is activated when the Secure Switch is manufactured,
and cannot be disabled or erased. The Secure Switch's Administrator Functions allow
authorized Administrator to download, view, and audit important log data and events.
•
User Authentication Device and HID Device filtering configuration:
This function enables authorized Administrator to assign Allowlist and Blocklist for the User
Authentication Devices, and a blacklist for HID devices.
•
Secure Switch's configuration:
This function enables authorized Administrator to perform functions like "Reset to Factory
Default."
•
The "Reset to Factory Default" command:
This command clears Allowlists/Blocklists with both Administrator Functions and Port
Authentication Utility.
Administrator must first log in and be authenticated for the Secure Switch Administrator Functions. To
maximize security, Administrator must set a new password after the first successful login, before
performing other administrative functions. Note that the Administrator password can be changed
anytime via Administrator Configuration.
