To use RBAC effectively requires planning. Use the following task map to plan and initially implement RBAC at your site.

Task	Description	For Instructions
1. Plan for RBAC	Involves examining your site's security needs, and deciding how to use RBAC at your site.	How to Plan Your RBAC Implementation
2. Learn to use the Solaris Management Console	Involves becoming familiar with the Solaris Management Console.	Chapter 2, Working With the Solaris Management Console (Tasks), in System Administration Guide: Basic Administration
3. Configure the first user and role	Uses the RBAC configuration tools in the Solaris Management Console to create a user and a role, and to assign the role to the user.	Using the Solaris Management Tools With RBAC (Task Map) in System Administration Guide: Basic Administration
4. (Optional) Create other users who can assume roles	Ensures that users who can assume an administrative role exist.	Using the Solaris Management Tools With RBAC (Task Map) in System Administration Guide: Basic Administration
5. (Recommended) Create other roles and assign them to users	Uses the RBAC tools to create roles for particular administrative areas, and to assign the roles to users.	How to Create and Assign a Role by Using the GUI
		Example 9-5
