Introduction

This technical note explains how to configure the amigopod Visitor Management Appliance to
provide different visitor account creation forms to different operators.
Using this advanced form of role-based access control allows for multiple different types of user to
be created by authorized operators.

Audience

This document is intended for network administrators and system integrators deploying an
amigopod-based visitor management solution.
Basic familiarity with the amigopod Visitor Management Appliance is assumed. For in-depth
information about the features and functions of the amigopod appliance, refer to the amigopod
Deployment Guide.

Document Overview

The first section of this technical note describes the fundamental components of the amigopod
role-based access control model, including operators, operator profiles, and the application forms
and views used for visitor management.
The next section contains a detailed configuration guide for deploying a solution consisting of
multiple different forms for visitor account creation. The steps required to customize the fields,
forms and operator profiles are explained.

Usage Scenarios

Use the configuration guidelines in this technical note if you want different operators to be able to
manage different groups of visitor accounts.
This technical note is also suitable for an environment where different operators must record
different information when creating a visitor account, even if all operators will create visitor
accounts using the same role.
NOTE The configuration described here requires all visitor account management to be performed by an
authorized operator (i.e. a user of the system that has logged into the amigopod GUI with a
username and password). Different visitor self-registration instances may also be implemented to
perform similar functions, but a self-registration instance may be accessed without operator
authentication. This type of configuration will not be described further in this technical note.
