Anonymous/Local Access

Anonymous/Local access enables you to select the following settings to include:

  • Anonymous Access 

    (Disabled by default). Enabling Anonymous Access enables a user to access the HPE SMH without logging in. If Anonymous is selected, any user, local or remote, has access to unsecured pages without being challenged for a username and password.


    [CAUTION: ]

    CAUTION: Hewlett Packard Enterprise does not recommend the use of anonymous access.


  • Local Access 

    (Disabled by default). Enabling Local Access means you can gain local access to HPE SMH without being challenged for authentication. This means that any user with access to the local console is granted full access if Administrator is selected.


    [CAUTION: ]

    CAUTION: Hewlett Packard Enterprise does not recommend the use of local access unless your management server software enables it.
