Add User Group
Use the Add User Group command to create specific groups and assign them different privileges,
depending on the needs of your work environment. Groups can help you keep your system
organized.
Assign privileges, or features, to Groups upon creating them. These Select Privileges are
privileges of either a command type or an event type. Command type privileges permit users to
see and execute commands. Event type privileges permit users to view events in the Ports and
Devices trees.
Users inherit the features privileges assigned to the group to which they belong. No user can have
any rights other than those assigned to the group. As an example, if a group is assigned the User
Management feature, all users in that group can see and execute the User Manager commands in
the Users menu: Add User, Edit User, Change User Password, etc.
In order to see Ports and Devices trees, a user group has to be assigned the Device and Port
Management feature. To view other events that occur in the system, those privileges must be
selected upon Adding or Editing a User Group. This chapter explains how to assign privileges to
groups; please see Appendix D: User Group Privileges for more information on what each
privilege means.
1. On the Users menu, click Add User Group. The Add User Group screen appears.
Figure 125 Add User Group Screen
2. Type the group name in the User Group Name field (1-16 characters, alphanumeric
characters and underscores).
3. Type the group description (for example, based on department, region, or assignment) in the
Description field.
4. In the Select Privileges section, check the check box(es) in the Has it column to assign the
specific privilege line items to the group. The Type column indicates whether the feature is a
Command type feature or an Event type feature (please see Appendix D: User Group
Privileges for more information).
5. Click OK to add the group or Cancel to exit without saving. A User Group Created
Successfully message confirms that a group has been created.
6. Repeat steps 1 through 5 to add other groups.
