Note Digi recommends keeping the Automatically Register Unknown Clients option disabled and to
manually add client IDs on a secure network.
1. Open the web UI.
2. Click AnywhereUSB from the Configuration section. The AnywhereUSB Configuration page
appears.
3. De-select the Automatically Register Unknown Clients option so the Hub rejects any client
ID that is not on the Hub's registered client list. In this case, a red X displays next to the name
of the Hubs in the AnywhereUSB Manager to which the client ID cannot connect.

Rename a Hub and the groups in a Hub
A default name is assigned to a Hub and to the groups in the Hub. These names are associated with
the physical Hub and groups on the Hub, and can be changed in the Configuration and Management
web user interface.
Note A USBdevice does not have a name that can be changed. However, a local name can be
assigned to a USB device in the AnywhereUSB Manager. See Assign a local name to a USBdevice.
The default Hub name and group name can be see by every user that connects to the Hub. You can
also give a Hub and groups a local name that can be see only by the user that assigns the name. See
Assign a local name to a Hub and Assign a local name to a group.
