Domain user permissions

UBIQUITY Manager allows you to define user permissions for devices, groups, and individual user accounts. Devices, groups and user accounts inherit the permissions defined for the folder in which they are stored.

Subfolders within your domain correspond to subdomains.Subdomains are useful for setting up specific access control settings for different business units, regions, or operations as appropriate for your environment. Rules assigned to subfolders and individual devices have priority over rules in the parent folders that contain them.

You can set exceptions in a user's permissions settings, even if the user  belongs to a group with pre-defined settings.

  1. In UBIQUITY Manager select Explorer > Domain view > Permissions.
  2. In the left pane, select the folder or device for which you wish to set user permissions, then access the Permissions section in the right pane.
  3. If the user for which you would like to set permissions is not listed in the Permissions section, add it by clicking the circled plus icon at the top right of the pane.
  4. Select the user or group and expand the Permission operations section.
  5. Allow or deny permissions, as needed.
The following table shows the domain user permissions available. Each permission includes a set of granular permissions that can be allowed or denied.

Note: Users who own the Manage Users Accounts permission can change the password of other users through the Explorer > Domain view section.
