Local Administrative Access

The Local Access Rules dialog window lets you add or modify administrative access rules for local Administration Stations. Use the fields in the dialog window to type the configuration information for the rule.

• Rule Index (No) -- (Optional) Assigns a number to a rule. By default, this field displays a number one greater than the last rule (indicating this rule will be placed bottom of the list). If you type a lower number, the new rule is inserted into the specified position in the list, and the rules currently in the configuration are renumbered.

• Screen -- (Optional) Specifies the Screen for which you want the rule to apply. Type a specific Screen name in this field if you use centralized management and want a rule to apply to a specific Screen.

• User -- Lists the user names of SunScreen EFS administrators. Use the names that you defined for the Administrative User object.

• Access Level -- Specifies what actions the designated user can perform:

  • ALL -- Allows administrator to display and modify all setting for the Screen.

  • WRITE -- Administrator can perform all operations except modifying the Administration Access rules for any Policy.

  • READ -- Administrator can view both the Information and Policy. This level also allows the user to save and clear logs on the information page. With this access level users cannot modify any Policy data.

  • STATUS -- Administrator can display status information (logs, statistics, status information) but cannot display or modify management settings.

  • NONE

• Description -- (Optional) Provides a brief description of the Administrative Access rule.
