Introduction
36 AlterPath KVM Installation, Configuration, and Users Guide
Controlling Power While Connected to KVM Ports
Users who have power management permissions can do power management
while connected to servers through KVM ports by using a keyboard shortcut
that brings up a power management screen on the OSD. The default keyboard
shortcut is Ctrl+k p.
Through the On Screen Display (OSD), administrators and users can make a
direct local connection and manage power of local devices. KVM users who
have power management permissions can do power management while
connected by using a keyboard shortcut that brings up a power management
screen. See “To Power On, Power Off, or Reboot the Connected Server” on
page 271.
Administrators must perform multiple configuration tasks in order to set up
and grant users permission for power management. See “Setting Up and
Configuring Power Management” on page 34 for a list of all of the
administration tasks involved in setting up power management.
The following table lists the power management methods and where they are
documented.
Authentication
Anyone accessing the KVM must log in by entering a username and
password. Controlling access by requiring users to enter names and passwords
is called authentication. Usernames and passwords entered during login
attempts are checked against a database that lists all the valid usernames along
with the encrypted passwords. Access is denied if the username or password
is not valid. The password database that is used for checking can reside either
locally (on the KVM) or on an authentication server on the network. The
