MAPS role-based access control
NOTE
MAPS configuration requires read and write permissions to the MAPS Management privilege.
The Management application user accounts contain the identification of the Management
application user, as well as privileges, roles, and areas of responsibility (AORs) assigned to the user.
Privileges provide access to the features in the Management application. A role is a group of
selected privileges. An AOR contains selected fabrics, devices, and groups that a Management
application user is allowed to manage.
By default, the SAN System Administrator and Network Administrator roles have read and write
permissions to the MAPS Management privilege. The Operator role has read only permissions.
MAPS Management read permissions enable you to perform the following actions:
•
View the Out of Range Violations and Port Health Violations widgets on the Dashboard.
•
View MAPS violations.
•
Access additional data from the MAPS-specific widgets.
In addition to the read actions, MAPS Management read and write permissions enable to perform
the following actions:
•
Configure, edit, and delete user-defined MAPS policies.
•
Activate policies on a device.
•
Distribute MAPS policies from one device to another.
•
Configure and edit user-defined MAPS rules.
•
