Displaying User Access Rights
The access rights of one or more user groups and/or users may be associated to one or more units.
For example:
A user is created with the login name johnsmith.
The user is then assigned to the User Administrators group.
A DSR1021 switch is added to the DSView software system.
Using the Unit Access Rights window, the User Administrators group is assigned to the
DSR1021 switch and various rights are assigned to the switch. The user johnsmith will have
the rights assigned to the user administrators group as long as he is a member of the group. If
johnsmith is removed from the user administrators group, he will no longer have the rights of
the group.
