Security
Menu path:
Setup > Devices > Security
In order to prevent unauthorized access to the thin client setup which could allow deeper penetration into
your network, it is essential that you set up an administrator password following the initial configuration.
You can also use an additional user password which offers various options for permitting restricted
configuration by users.
10.1.
Password
Menu path:
Setup > Devices > Security > Password
Under
Password
, set up an administrator password and a user password.
Administrator and user password
Sets passwords for the administrator and user accounts. The
setup will be protected by the administrator password unless
the user has been granted access to specific areas.
By enabling this password, the IGEL setup, shell access to
Xterm
and access to the console will be
restricted to the administrator. The
Reset to Factory Defaults
option may only be used with this
password. If the setup is locked by an administrator password single setup pages can be enabled
for the user - see
Enable Setup Pages for Use
(page 16)r.
Remote user password
Sets a password for the remote session user (SSH).
Setup user
Allows the user to access the local setup.
When you enter a password, ensure that the correct keyboard layout is enabled. After all, you will
only see stars instead of characters when entering the password and will not be able to see why
the password was not accepted.
10.2.
Login Options
Menu path:
Setup > Devices > Security > Logon
Here you can configure the local login procedure for the thin client. You can login via the IGEL
smartcard or via the Kerberos protocol, e.g. in a
Windows
domain.
