Enterprise Version

3.3.6 Security Manager

Collectively the security features within CanogaView Login, Application Level Security -
(Administrator, Operator, Observer), SNMP Community Names, DMM (SNMP Proxy)
Trusted Hosts and Server OS Login/Password support provide for a robust secured product.

To manage application security, open the Security Manager. On a Windows platform, this
page can be accessed from the Security Manager shortcut installed during the CanogaView
installation (see Figure 3-6. Shortcut Menu) or the Utilities option from the CanogaView
Start page (see Figure 3-8: CanogaView Start Page).

On a UNIX platform or remote windows platform, open the URL for the Security Manager as
documented in Section 3.2.1 and 3.2.2.

Each application can have a minimum access level assigned which is required to open the
application (e.g., if UsersConfig application is assigned a Supervisor level access, users
without this security level will be denied access when attempting to configure the Users
data.)

Individual fields within the application can also be assigned access levels; "full access,"
"limited access" and "none."

Full Access - allows read/write privileges for users with the minimum access level (i.e.,

observer, operator, supervisor)

Limited Access - allows read only privileges for users with the minimum access level

(i.e., observer, operator, supervisor)

None - does not allow the field to be displayed or interacted with any user.
