Adding or Modifying a Rights Profile

The Security Administrator role creates new rights profiles and modifies existing ones. A right or rights profile is a collection of actions and commands with security attributes, plus authorizations. A rights profile can be part of another rights profiles, or stand on its own.

The Rights tool in the SMC GUI displays the existing rights profiles. Each rights profile has a corresponding help file that displays in the GUI. The administrator should create a right's accompanying help file before creating the right itself. The GUI prompts for the name of the help file when the administrator creates the new right. See "To Create a Help File for a Rights Profile" and "To Create a Rights Profile".
