Launch server KVM from FI Device Console while in IMM?

[SIMMN]

New to the IMM for UCS...

While the UCS is connected and fully managed by Intersight SaaS, if I login to the FI A local IP for the Device Console and tried to launch KVM of a server, I got presented with the vKVM login page (screenshot below)...I do not remember set a specific password for KVM and I tried with UCS local admin account but failed...

Is this because the UCS is managed by intersight, I am not allowed to launch server KVM from FI Device Console? If so, whatif Internet connection is down, will I be able to launch KVM from device console and what credential to use?

Will it be the same for on-prem Intersight setup?

You are fully allowed to launch the KVM from the Device Console. However, you will need to create/configure/deploy a Local User Policy on the Server Profile in Intersight. This profile will contain the credentials used to log into the local KVM via Device Console. You can also create multiple users within this policy. This policy can be configured under Policies > Local User Policy. 

Here you can define broad password configurations such as Strong Password Enforcement, history, etc. At the bottom of the page you can select "Add New User" where you can configure the KVM user credentials. 

Then, of course, you can deploy this policy across as many servers as you'd like. 

And yes, this will be the same for Intersight On-Prem Appliances.
