Appendix A
AnywhereUSB Permitted Device List
An option has been added to the AnywhereUSB product that will limit access to a set of select devices.
This option allows an administrator to build a list of supported devices by adding specific Vendor
ID/Product ID or Class values into the registry.
The AnywhereUSB will compare the IDs of each USB device (when the USB device is connected), with
the value(s) in the registry and if there is a match, the device will enumerate; otherwise an “unknown
device” message will appear in the Notification Area.
The key is located in the following location in the registry:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\ionhub
The new key value is “PermittedDevices.” This Multi String value contains a list of devices that the
AnywhereUSB will enumerate all other devices will show as “unknown device.”
The following are some examples of values in the permitted device list
For a hub use the value “GENERICHUB” (Class_09 is not supported)
For a composite device use the value “COMPOSITE”
For specific device use Vid_xxxx&Pid_yyyy where xxxx and yyyy are the vendor id and product id
of the device
For a device class such as mass storage use Class_xx where xx is the class of device
COMMUNICATIONS 02
