Log On Methods
Building Operation provides two methods to log on to the system: as a Windows user or as a Building Operation user.
Log On as a Windows User
If you are logged on with a Windows user account that is mapped in Building Operation to the Windows Active Directory user account group that you belong to, you can select a SmartStruxure server and log on in a single sign-on.

You can also log on using another Windows account that is mapped in Building Operation. For more information, see Logging on to WorkStation as another Windows User .
Log On as a Building Operation User
When logging on as a Building Operation user, you authenticate yourself with a Building Operation account user name and password. For more information, see Logging on to WorkStation as a Building Operation User .
You also select which Building Operation domain and SmartStruxure server that you want to access. For more information, see User Accounts and User Account Groups .
With a Building Operation user account, you can also connect directly to the local domain of a SmartStruxure server. For more information, see Administration Accounts in SmartStruxure Server Local Domain .
