User account authorities and the functions available to each account

Three types of user accounts can be created in the Remote Control server UI. The user accounts are user, super user, and administrator.

The administrator account has the most authority. Administrators can do more advanced tasks. All types of authority can take part in remote control sessions, taking over and controlling target systems and are known as controller users. A user with administrator authority can also access server admin functions and is known as a Server Admin User.

The following table illustrates each user account and highlights the authority that is given to each account.
