PUPM Automatic Login

PUPM automatic login lets you check out a privileged account password and log in to the PUPM endpoint in a single step. PUPM automatic login does not display the password after you check it out, but uses the password to log you in to the privileged account on the endpoint automatically. You can view the password in CA Access Control Enterprise Management after you check it out.

Important! You can use PUPM automatic login on Microsoft Internet Explorer browsers only.

To manage automatic login, you create login applications in CA Access Control Enterprise Management. A login application uses a script to open a window on the user's computer and log the user in to the privileged account that they checked out. For example, if you use a PuTTY login application to check out the root account on an SSH Device endpoint, CA Access Control Enterprise Management opens a PuTTY window on your computer and logs you in to the root account on the endpoint.
