Client Access Levels You can run multiple clients against a single server. No more than 10
Traffix Manager clients can connect to the same Traffix Manager server.
There are two access levels for running the client:
■
The Traffix Administrator level allows the user to configure all aspects
of the operation of Traffix Manager, such as data collection and report
generation. To avoid security conflicts between multiple clients, there
can be only one Traffix Administrator logged in at any one time.
■
All other clients are read-only and as such can view all collected data
and configurations, but not change collection configurations. When
you first start the client, you have Traffix Administrator access, if no
other clients are logged in as the Traffix Administrator.
You can change to Traffix Administrator access from the User
Authorization dialog box, providing no-one else is logged in as the Traffix
Administrator at that time.
If you are a read-only user and attempt a Traffix Administrator level
function, such as configuring a new agent, you are prompted to change
to the Traffix Administrator, providing there is no other Traffix
Administrator logged in at that time. If there is a Traffix Administrator
logged in, access to that function is refused.
