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

  • Anonymous Access. Is disabled by default. Enabling Anonymous Access enables a user to access the HP System Management Homepage (HP SMH) without logging in. If Anonymous is selected, any user, local or remote, has access limited to unsecured pages without being challenged for a username and password.

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

  • Local Access.  Is disabled by default. Enabling it means you can locally gain access to HP 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: HP does not recommend the use of local access unless your management server software enables it.
