Milestone XProtect 3.7; Administrator’s Manual

Adding a Group to a Role

1. In the Client’s Navigation section, select User Configuration, then Groups.

2. Right-click the required group name, select Add group to role ..., then select the required

role.

All members of the group will get the selected role.

Removing a Group from a Role

1. In the Client’s Navigation section, select User Configuration, then Groups.

2. Right-click the required group name, select Remove group from role ..., then select the

required role.

All members of the group will be removed from the role.


Bear in mind that individual users may be members of more than one group. If you want to

be sure that a particular user is completely removed from a particular role, it is

recommended that you check whether the user is a member of other groups and, if so,
whether the user’s membership of other groups does not still tie the user to the role.

1.

In XProtect Central Client’s Navigation section, expand the User Configuration entry and

right-click Groups.

Central, it is also possible to use XProtect Central without Active Directory.
