OSD Operation (continued)

Account Policy

The Account Policy section allows rules for usernames and passwords to be regulated. The settings in this section are described in the table

below.

Item Description

Minimum Username Length Sets the minimum number of characters required for each username. Values from 1 to 16 can be entered.

Minimum Password Length Sets the minimum number of characters required for each password. Values can be from 0 to 16.

Password Must Contain

at Least

• One Upper Case – Checking this box will require that each password contain one upper case letter

• One Lower Case – Checking this box will require that each password contain one lower case letter

• One Number – Checking this box will require that each password contain one number

Note: Current usernames and passwords are not affected when these settings are changed. Only usernames and

passwords that are created after these settings have been changed must follow the rules.

Disable Duplicate Login Checking this box will prevent users from logging in with the same username and password to open more than one

session at the same time.

Encryption

This section allows you to set different encryption settings for the Keyboard/Mouse, Video and Virtual Media functions of the KVM switch. You

can choose any combination of encryption methods (DES, 3DES, AES and/or RC4), you can choose to randomly switch between them or you can

choose no encryption at all. Although enabling encryption will add more security to you installation, it can also slow down system performance

(mouse, keyboard, video), with the following having the most impact:

• RC4impactsperformancetheleastoutofthefourencryptionmethods.DESissecondtoleastinimpact,followedby3DESandAES.

• Ofallthepossiblecombinations,acombinationofRC4andDESimpactsperformancetheleast.

The Login String allows the KVMs IP address to be more secure by

adding extra text to the end of it. When text is entered into the Login

String ﬁeld, users will need to include a forward slash (/) and the

example, if a Login String of abcdefg is entered, the user must enter a

URL such as 192.168.0.126/abcdefg.

The following characters are allowed in the login string:

0through9,athroughz,AthroughZ,~!@$^&*()_+’<>,.|

The following characters are not allowed:

%”:/?#\[Space]

Note: If a Login String is not entered, anyone can access the KVM

switch using the IP Adress alone, making the installation less secure.

MAC Filtering

To add a MAC ﬁlter:

1. Cl ick Add. A dialog box similar to the one below appears:

2. Type in the desired MAC address and click OK.

3. Repeat these steps for any additional MAC addresses you want to

ﬁlter.

To delete a MAC ﬁlter:

Select the desired MAC ﬁlter from the list and click Remove.

To modify a MAC ﬁlter:

1. Select the desired MAC ﬁlter from the list and click Edit. An Edit

dialog box box appears.

2. Delete the old address and replace it with the new one. Click OK.

Note: To block a computer from accessing the B064-Series KVM

Switch, you do not need to ﬁlter both its IP address and its MAC

address. Any computer blocked by a MAC ﬁlter will be denied access

to the KVM switch, even if the computer is allowed to access the

KVM switch under the IP ﬁlters that are set up.

If any ﬁlters have been conﬁgured, they appear in the IP Filter and/or

MAC Filter list boxes.
