This chapter introduces the concept of roles and explains how to create them.
This chapter includes the following topics:
Roles are a logical group of users with a specific set of permissions. You can create custom roles for users. You can add users to roles by group names defined in your domain. By adding groups of users to roles, you define the level of user access. You can also add individual users to a role.
The default roles included with Administrator include:
