In System Manager, you require appropriate permissions to perform a task. The administrator grants permissions to users by assigning appropriate roles. Role Based Access Control (RBAC) in System Manager supports the following types of roles:

• Built-in

• Custom

With these roles, you can gain access to various elements with specific permission mappings.

Built-in roles are default roles that authorize users to perform common administrative tasks. You can assign built-in roles to users, but you cannot delete roles or change permission mappings in the built-in roles.

You can perform LDAP synchronization of Microsoft Active Directory or other supported directory server administrator roles with System Manager administrator roles. The capability includes system roles and custom roles on System Manager.
