The registration can be performed by the system administrator or department administrator.
It is necessary to set Register/update/delete device/media authority in Detail authority in the Administrator Information Settings window of the Server Settings Tool.
The registration can be performed through the Management Console.
In the case of a 3-level system structure, the registration can be performed through the Management Console that is connected to the Master Management Server. It has nothing to do with the execution of collective management of user information.
The number of USB devices that can be registered is 20,000, including the number of registrations of media, PC cards, and Wi-Fi connection destinations.
The USB device that satisfies all the following conditions can be registered:
It has a USB interface.
The manufacturer ID/product ID/internal serial number can be obtained from the USB device.
An example of a USB device that can be registered is shown as follows:
USB Device | Description and Notes |
|---|---|
USB Flash Memory | It can also be registered via USB-HUB. |
USB Hardware | It can also be registered via USB-HUB. |
SD Card via USB Card Reader .etc | Identify the device itself as the USB device that can be registered. By registering the device to individually identify media, the inserted memory media can be identified separately. |
USB Floppy Disk Device | Identify the device itself as the USB device that can be registered and the inserted floppy media cannot be identified separately. |
USB MO Device | Identify the device itself as the USB device that can be registered and the inserted MO media cannot be identified separately. |
Portable device/imaging device | Identify the device itself as the USB device that can be registered and the inserted memory media cannot be identified separately. |
USB DVD/CD-R/RW Device | Identify the device itself as the USB device that can be registered and the inserted DVD/CD media cannot be identified separately. |
USB devices can be registered using different identification methods.
For example, a USB device can be registered using Complete Match and Product Match.
The following identification methods can be used for USB device registration:
Complete Match and Product Match
Complete Match and Not Available
Serial No. Match and Product Match
Serial No. Match and Not Available
Product Match and Not Available
To determine the availability of USB devices in the Management Server, check if USB devices are registered in the following order of priority:
Complete Match -> Serial No. Match -> Product Match -> Not Available
If it is determined that USB devices were registered using multiple identification methods, the date of the last connection, name of the last user, and name of the last computer that used will always be updated for all matching USB devices.
Additionally, if the Deadline of USB Device Use settings are configured, the deadline for USB device use will be configured according to the rule in the table below:
USB device registration method | Expiry status of USB device use | USB device whose deadline for use will be updated |
|---|---|---|
Registration using Complete Match and Product Match | If the deadline for USB devices registered using Complete Match is expired. | USB devices in Product Match will be updated. |
If the deadline for USB devices registered using Product Match is expired. | USB devices in Complete Match and Product Match will be updated. | |
If neither deadline is expired. | USB devices in Complete Match and Product Match will be updated. | |
Registration using Serial No. Match and Product Match | If the deadline for USB devices registered using Serial No. Match is expired. | USB devices in Product Match will be updated. |
If the deadline for USB devices registered using Product Match is expired. | USB devices in Serial No. Match and Product Match will be updated. | |
If neither deadline is expired. | USB devices in Serial No. Match and Product Match will be updated. | |
Registration using Product Match and Not Available (*1) | If the deadline for USB devices registered using Product Match is expired. | Deadline will not be updated. |
If the deadline for USB devices registered using Not Available is expired. | USB devices in Product Match and Not Available will be updated. | |
If neither deadline is expired. | USB devices in Product Match and Not Available will be updated. |
*1: Same as registration using Complete Match and Not Available or Serial No. Match and Not Available. Refer to the columns "Expiry status of USB device use" and "USB device whose deadline for use will be updated" for Complete Match or Serial No. Match for the description for Product Match.
The device information registered can be distributed as the CT policy or user policy.
Refer to "2.4.4 Register Devices/Media" for details on how to register a USB device.
