responsibilities to stakeholders throughout the organization. Once you define the template,
you can then modify access rights and modify group and device access levels.
1. In the Users page, select the Roles tab.

3. On the Role Information tab:
a. Type a name for the role in the Name field.
b. Type a description for the role in the Description field.
c. Select a role template in the Role Template drop-down list.
Any existing role can be used as a template and as such, will determine what access rights
the new user role will start with. You can add or remove access rights regardless of which
role was selected as the template.
