    Article summary

    Each device type has a collection of commands to access device of that type. Generally, the default configuration is sufficient and is the recommended option. 

    As needed, admin users can:

    • Disable or change existing commands.
    • Enable any (by default) disabled commands.
    • Assign custom commands to a device.
    • Remove access to specific commands from certain users or groups (with user and group authorization).

    Changes to the default command settings affect all users and require careful consideration.

    Commands available depend on the device type. For example, the KVM command (enable Service Processor KVM session support) is only available to Service Processor devices. The Outlet command is available to all device types.

    Custom Commands can be created with custom scripts, for all device types. Custom Commands can support for a wide range of different functions (such as additional session options and specific custom device tasks).

    NOTE
    Custom scripts can be created by the customer or a professional services provider.
