Aten CN8600 [57/167] Account policy

Chapter 4. Configuration

Account Policy

Set the parameters for the username and password.

 Minimum Username Length: Enter the minimum number (0 - 16) of

characters required for a username (default is 6).

 Minimum Password Length: Enter the minimum number (0 - 16) of

characters required for a password (default is 6).

 Check whether the password must contain at least: One Upper Case, One

Lower Case; and/or One Number character.

Note: This policy only affects user accounts created after this policy has

been enabled, as well as password changes to existing user accounts.

Check Disable Duplicate Login to ensure that only one session for each user

account is active. This prevents users from logging in with the same account at

the same time.

Encryption

These flexible encryption alternatives for keyboard/mouse, video, and virtual

media data let you choose any combination of DES; 3DES; AES; RC4; or a

Random cycle of any or all of them.

Enabling encryption will affect system performance – no encryption offers the

best performance; the greater the encryption, the greater the adverse effect. If

you enable encryption, the performance considerations (going from best to

worst) are as follows:

 RC4 offers the least performance impact; DES is next; then 3DES or AES

 The RC4 + DES combination offers the least impact of any combination
