The SDB provides you with the following ways to grant permissions to users.
Note:
In the context of this chapter, the term user does not necessarily refer to a person. It can be an application that logs into the TSAPI service with its own login and password.
Assign a worktop to a user. This is a typical method of assigning permissions to a user. By default a user assigned to a worktop has permission to access only the devices associated with that worktop for the following types of requests:
Administer access rights for a user. The following access rights settings provide permission to access specific devices for each of the following types of requests.
For a description of these access rights settings, see Access Rights options.
Enable the Extended Worktop Access check box on the TS Configuration page. This allows users to roam to other worktops. For example, when a user logs in to another user’s workstation, the TSAPI service checks the Security Database for a worktop with the same LAN address as the workstation where the user is attempting to log in. If a match is found, the user is given Call Origination and Termination permissions and Device/Device monitoring permissions for any of the devices associated with that worktop.
