Workstation and Workstation User Functions

  • Article

The network management workstation functions perform administrative tasks on a local or remote workstation. Only a user or application with admin group membership, on a local or remote server, can perform administrative tasks on a workstation to control its operation, user access, and resource sharing. For more information about calling functions that require administrator privileges, see Running with Special Privileges.

The workstation functions are listed following.

Function Description
NetWkstaGetInfo Returns information about the configuration elements for a workstation.
NetWkstaSetInfo Configures a workstation.
