Using your Rack-Mount Console KVM Switch
AutoLogout Enable and Time
The AutoLogout feature logs-off the user after a specified period (1–99 minutes)
of console inactivity. Generally, this will return the Rack-Mount Console KVM
Switch to Guest-level access, but if Guest access has been disabled, all access
rights will be revoked until a valid user logs-on to the console. The edit box sets
the length of inactivity required before the logout occurs. The AutoLogout feature
is not global; it has to be set independently for each console.
NOTE:
Unless AutoLogout is enabled, or the user manually logs out, the session
will not end when the user closes the OSD (the next user will open the OSD at
the privilege level of the previous user).
Broadcast Passwords
This check box forces all other consoles to overwrite all of their user passwords
with the passwords contained in the current console. This makes it simple for the
administrator to synchronize the passwords of all consoles (e.g. when adding a
new console to an existing configuration).
