» Related Topics

Local/Anonymous Access enables you to select the appropriate settings to include:

  • Anonymous Access. Anonymous Access is disabled by default. Enabling Anonymous Access enables a user to access the System Management Homepage without logging in.

    Caution: HP does not recommend the use of anonymous access .

  • Local Access. Local Access enables you to locally gain access to the System Management Homepage without being challenged for authentication. This means that any user with access to the local console is granted full access if Administrator is selected. If Anonymous is selected, any local user has access limited to unsecured pages without being challenged for a username and password.

    Caution: HP does not recommend the use of local access unless your management server software enables it.
