How to Control Access to USB Devices (only
myUTN-80 and later)
Via the USB ports you can control the access to the USB devices that
are connected to the UTN server. Two security methods are available
for each USB port. Both security methods can also be used in combi-
nation.
USB Port Key Control
In the course of the key control a key is specified for the USB port
via the myUTN Control Center. By setting the key, the USB device
that is connected to the USB port is protected against unwanted
access.
Neither the USB port nor the connected USB device will be displayed
in the SEH UTN Manager. This means that a user will not be able to
make changes to the port or to establish a connection between the
client and the USB port.
To make the USB port and the connected USB device available, the
user must enter the key for the USB port on the client. This is done
via the SEH UTN Manager. By changing the key in the myUTN Con-
trol Center the user can (once again) lose its permission to access
the USB device.
USB Port Device
Assignment
Device assignment means that a USB device is permanently assigned
to each USB port via the myUTN Control Center. A USB device can
then only be operated together with its assigned USB port.
The device assignment makes sure that the (security) settings of the
USB port and the USB device are not bypassed. If a device other
than the assigned USB device is connected to the USB port, it can-
not be operated.
If you want to control the access to the USB devices, it is advisable
to restrict the administrative access to the myUTN Control Center so
that the settings cannot be changed by unauthorized persons; see:
