Managing Administrator and Roles

The controller must be able to manage various administrators and roles that are created within the network to assign tasks and functions, and to authenticate users.

In this section:

  1. Creating User Groups
    Creating user groups and configuring their access permissions, resources, and administrator accounts allows administrators to manage a large number of users.
  2. Creating Administrator Accounts
    The controller supports the creation of additional administrator accounts. This allows you to share or delegate management and monitoring functions with other members of your organization. You can also modify the status of the administrator account by locking or unlocking it.
