3. Click the checkbox to the left of one or more unit groups, then click Rights . The Unit Group
Access Rights window will open.
If you are setting access rights for one unit group, you may click on the unit group name, then
click
Access Rights in the side navigation bar to access the Unit Group Access Rights window.
4. To add or remove a user or user group from the User and User Groups list:
a. Click Edit List . The Unit Access Rights User Selection window will open.
• To add one or more users or user groups, select the user(s) or user group(s) from the
Available list, then click
Add . The users and/or user groups will be moved to the List
to Update list.
• To remove one or more users or user groups, select the user(s) or user group(s) from
the List to Update list, then click
Remove . The users and user groups will be moved to
the Available list. (Inherited users and user groups can only be removed from the first
unit group that specified any access rights other than inherit.)
b. Click OK . The Unit Access Rights window will display the current list of users and/or user
groups. When a user or user group is added to the list, the default access rights will
be displayed.
5. To set access rights, select a user or user group from the User and User Groups list, then enable
or disable a checkbox in the Access Rights table for each access right.
• Allow - the access right is allowed for the user/user group.
• Deny - the access right is denied for the user/user group.
• Inherit - the access right is inherited from the unit group(s) to which the selected user/user
group belongs. When Inherit is selected, the Allow and Deny checkboxes will become
gray and unchangeable, and indicate the inherited value. If the inherited settings indicated
both Allow and Deny, the inherited value is Deny, which takes precedence.
To disable the inherit functionality, uncheck the Inherit checkbox.
If none of the checkboxes are checked, the access right is neither allowed nor denied.
If the unit group contains both appliances and target devices, all rights will be displayed and
may be enabled, even though they may not necessarily be valid for the unit.
6. Repeat the preceding steps to change access rights for other users or user groups.
7. Click Save and then click Close . If a connection or power control action is enabled, the
appropriate link will appear in the Action column of Units Views windows containing that
group or units in that group.
