Managing User Access to Admin License Manager Information
The Sentinel LDK Admin License Manager can be accessed and modified by local and remote users on the network using Admin Control Center.
NOTE This topic relates only to accessing information for the Admin License Manager, such as configuration parameters or Product data. This topic does not relate to accessing local or remote licenses with the License Manager.
By default, only the following users are authorized to set access rights for the Admin License Manager on a given machine:

>A remote user who accesses the local ACC from the machine referenced by the Trusted Client (specified on the Access from Remote Clients tab).
All other remote users are blocked from setting access rights for the local Admin License Manager.
