Configuring administrator groups

The Administrator groups page
all the administrator groups that have been configured on the VCS, and lets you add, edit and delete
groups.
Note: administrator groups are only active when
Administrator groups determine which access rights members of the group have after they have been
successfully authenticated to use the VCS.
When an administrator logs in to the VCS web interface, their credentials are authenticated against the
remote directory service and they are assigned the access rights associated with the group to which
the administrator belongs. If the administrator account belongs to more than one group, the highest
level permission is assigned.
The configurable options are:
Field Description
Name The name of the administrator group.
It cannot contain any of the following
characters:
/ \ [ ] : ; | = , + * ? > < @ "
Access The access level for members of the
specified administrator group:
Read-write: allows all configuration to be
viewed and changed. This provides the
same rights as the default admin account.
Read-only: allows status and configuration
information to be viewed only and not
changed. Some pages, such as the
Upgrade page, are blocked to read-only
accounts.
Auditor: allows access to the Event Log,
Configuration Log and the Overview page
only.
None: web login access to the VCS is not
allowed.
To create a new administrator group, click New.
To edit an existing administrator group, click View/Edit.
