Managing PCoIP Management Console Users

PCoIP Management Console Enterprise Edition supports multiple concurrent administrative users. All users have the same administrative capabilities. PCoIP Management Console Standard Edition supports one administrative user.

You can manage user accounts by clicking SETTINGS from the PCoIP Management Console’s top menu and then clicking the USERS menu in the left pane.

Displaying User Information

The MANAGEMENT CONSOLE USERS page contains a table showing all the PCoIP Management Console users that are currently configured. You can create a new user account (PCoIP Management Console Enterprise), edit a user account, enable or disable one or more user accounts (PCoIP Management Console Enterprise), and view user logs to see user activity. You can also refine the list of users in the table by clicking ENABLED USERS to display only users with enabled accounts, or ALL USERS to display all user accounts.

Click the gear icon to the right of the table to change the information you want to display in the table columns. Your customized settings are saved in your browser and will be used for any user who subsequently logs in from that browser.
