Specifications
the admin user can blank the screen contents when another user is connected but not
controlling the keyboard and mouse.
With a single-user access policy, only one user may control the system. New connections
are permitted, but the admin user, they will NOT be able to see or even control the host
computer(s). Once the first user disconnects (or otherwise gives up control), the second
user will be able to access the system immediately.
Local User Lockout
There are 2 modes available:
1. Disable – Local user always has access (default): under this mode, the local user has
the access right to control the host computer(s).
2. Enable – Network user given priority:
under this mode, the local user has NO right to
control the host computer(s). And on the screen, there is an IP-OSD menu pops up as the
following image shown. The local user can’t see and do anything, only this IP-OSD menu
shown on the screen. That is, the admin user can select this mode to lock out the local user.
Please keep in mind that the local user has no way to take control away from the network
user, so an unattended VNC session can cause a problem. Under this situation, if you are
locked-out of the system because someone has left a VNC session connected and cannot
be reached though other means, the admin user may close all VNC connections. See the
Status page to access this feature.
