Admin domain access levels
Admin Domains offer a hierarchy of administrative access.
To manage Admin Domains, you must be a physical fabric administrator. A “physical fabric administrator”
is a user with the Admin role and access to all Admin Domains (AD0 through AD255).
Other administrative access is determined by your defined RBAC role and AD membership. Your role
determines your access level and permission to perform an operation. Your AD membership determines the
fabric resources that you can operate on.
Table 46 lists each Admin Domain user type and describes its administrative access and capabilities.
