screen. The user information you have configured appears on the AMP Setup > Users page and the user
propagates to all other AMP pages and relevant functions.
NOTE: AMP enables user roles to be created with access to folders within multiple branches of the overall hierarchy. This feature
assists non-administrator users who support a subset of accounts or sites within a single AMP deployment, such as help desk or
IT staff.

Creating AMP User Roles

The AMP Setup > Roles page defines the viewable devices, the operations that can be performed on devices, and
general AMP access. VisualRF uses the same user roles as defined for AMP—users can see floor plans that contain
an AP to which they have access in AMP, although only visible APs appear on the floor plan.
Users can also see any building that contains a visible floor plan, and any campus that contains a visible building.
NOTE: In VisualRF > Setup > Server Settings, a new flag added in AMP 7.2 allows you to restrict the visibility of empty floor plans to
the role of the user who created them. In previous versions, a floor plan without APs could be visible to all users. By default, this
setting is set to No.
When a new role is added to AMP, VisualRF must be restarted for the new user to be enabled. Refer to
11, "Using VisualRF" on page 259
User roles can be created that have access to folders within multiple branches of the overall hierarchy. This
feature assists non-administrative users, such as help desk or IT staff, who support a subset of accounts or sites
within a single AMP deployment. You can restrict user roles to multiple folders within the overall hierarchy even
if they do not share the same top-level folder. Non-admin users are only able to see data and users for devices
within their assigned subset of folders.
Perform the following steps to view, add, edit, or delete user roles:
