Role-based Administration
12-2
Use Role-based Administration to grant and control access to the OfficeScan web
console. If there are several OfficeScan administrators in your organization, you can use
this feature to assign specific web console privileges to the administrators and present
them with only the tools and permissions necessary to perform specific tasks. You can
also control access to the client tree by assigning them one or several domains to
manage. In addition, you can grant non-administrators "view only" access to the web
console.
Each user (administrator or non-administrator) is assigned a specific role. A role defines
the level of access to the web console. Users log on to the web console using custom
user accounts or Active Directory accounts.
Role-based administration involves the following tasks:
1. Define user roles. For details, see User Roles on page 12-3.
2. Configure user accounts and assign a particular role to each user account. For
details, see User Accounts on page 12-18.
View web console activities for all users from the system event logs. The following
activities are logged:
• Logging on to the console
• Password modification
• Logging off from the console
• Session timeout (user is automatically logged off)
