Configure and manage client IDs

The client ID is a unique identifier assigned to a user account the first time a user logs in to a computer and opens the AnywhereUSB Manager. During this process, the AnywhereUSB Manager creates a secure identity certificate that is associated with the client ID. This certificate is used to validate your user account with the Hub. For more information, see Client ID overview.

Manage the client IDs

For each Hub, you can view a list of client IDs that are allowed to connect to the Hub. You can manually add client IDs or choose to automatically add client IDs to the list.

Note You can have up to 255 client IDs in the client list.

Assign client IDs to USB ports on the Hub

The client IDs are assigned to groups of USB ports on the Hub. When a computer connects to a group in the AnywhereUSB Manager, the computer has access to all of the ports in the group and the devices connected to those ports. No other computer is allowed to access any of the devices in the group. A computer can connect to more than one group at a time.
