User Group Access Rights
Access rights indicate whether a user is allowed to perform certain actions on a unit in the DSView
3 software system. See About Access Rights on page 144 for detailed information and a list of
actions that are available for target devices and managed appliances.
You may assign access control rights from a user group perspective. You select a user group,
specify the units for which rights will be assigned, then indicate the permission to perform the
action (none, allow, deny or inherit) for each unit. That procedure is described in this section.
There are other ways to assign access rights:
• From a user perspective - see User Access Rights on page 239
• From a unit perspective - see Unit Access Rights on page 146
• From a unit group perspective - see Changing the unit group properties on page 215
To display user group access rights:
1. Click the Users tab.
2. Click Groups in the top navigation bar. Built-In will automatically be selected in the side
navigation bar and the User Groups - Built-in window will open. To display the User Groups -
User Defined window, click User-Defined in the side navigation bar.
3. Click on a user group name. The User Group Properties window will open.
4. Click Effective Rights in the side navigation bar and then click All Units, Target Devices or
