Login Options

In the Login pane, you can specify the login settings for connecting to this Parallels physical server.

• The current user . Enable this option to connect to the server with the same user account that you used to log in to the primary operating system installed on this server.

  Note: This option is available for the localhost server only, which is the server with IP address 127.0.0.1 on your network.

• This user . Enable this option and specify the user name and password to connect to this server. The name and the password you enter should be valid for the physical server. If you want to save the user name and password, select Save Password .
• Connect to this server by default . Enable this option if you want to be connected to this server automatically when you start Parallels Management Console. You can also set the level of security when connecting to the server. For more information about the security levels, refer to Security Options .

  Note: You can set only one server to be the default server that will be connected when you launch Parallels Management Console.

• Use Data Compression . If you select this option, the data sent between Parallels Management Console and Parallels Server will be compressed. If you use low-speed connections, select this option to improve the data transfer speed.
