CHAPTER 8: OSD FUNCTIONS
8.7 MANAGING USERS
Users are defined in the Emerald system to provide rights to manage the system, rights to connect to different target devices and
set parameters for connections. There are three types of users that can be created in an Emerald system.
1. Administrator – users of the class have full rights to configure the system. They can create/modify/delete new users and
connections, change network settings, etc.
2. Power User – users of this class can modify resolutions for connections to virtual desktops and change his/her local password.
3. Standard Users – users of this class can only select from a list of pre-defined connections to access and view system
information. They cannot change any configuration settings.
The Emerald Receiver and Boxilla have one default user – admin, which is a member of the administrator group. This user is
defined by default and cannot be deleted. An Emerald Receiver or Boxilla can have a maximum of 32 users defined, unless in a
Boxilla manager domain with an “upgrade” license installed. With the upgrade license installed, unlimited users can be defined.
To manage users, an administrator selects the Users tab (this Tab is only visible to Administrator class users).
