User management options
Distinguish between the following:
● User management in Windows, without SIMATIC Logon:
– User management on a single PC
– User management performed from a central location in Windows (PCs in a domain)
● User management expanded to include SIMATIC Logon:
Many PCS 7 applications support central user management with the "SIMATIC Logon"
software. SIMATIC Logon is based on the main mechanisms of Windows user
management.
SIMATIC Logon provides the following enhancements for user management:
– User management has been enhanced to include SIMATIC Logon from a central
location in Windows (PCs in a domain).
– User management is expanded to include SIMATIC Logon on a single PC.
