Assigning permissions to access Solution Deployment Manager

Last Updated : Jul 06, 2020 |

About this task

System Manager provides access permissions to Solution Deployment Manager through Role Based Access Control (RBAC) for elements, such as Communication Manager, Session Manager, Branch Session Manager, and IP Office. System Manager defines flexible access privileges for deployment, migration, upgrade, and update so that the users with administrator credentials can create their own roles.

With RBAC, System Manager supports access privileges at the element level and physical location level.

Procedure

  2. In the navigation pane, click Roles.
  3. On the Roles page, select an existing role, and perform one of the following steps:

    • Click New.

    • Right-click and select New.
