Roles

Console uses Roles Based Access Control (RBAC) to authorize users to various Console functions. The permissions to perform certain operations or view certain tags and endpoints are assigned to a role. Users are assigned roles and through those role assignments, the users acquire permissions for their Console activities.

The Administrator role cannot be modified.

The Roles page consists of four components:

1. The Ribbon groups: Used to create, edit, manage and organize the roles.
2. The Name/AD group: The list of locally defined Console users or the list of users synched with the specified LDAP.
3. The General Permissions group: Where you grant or exclude permissions to users to access specific features of the Console.
4. The Tags Permissions group: Where you grant or exclude permissions to users to view and export results data.
