Group Access

System > Group Access

The Group Access page determines administrator access to machine groups by assigning machine groups to administrator roles. Since all machine IDs are assigned to group IDs, administrators can be permitted or denied access to machine ID.group ID user accounts using Group Access. Adding or removing a machine group to or from an administrator role automatically adds or removes access to any associated subgroups. An administrator belonging to multiple administrator roles has access to a machine group if any single administrator role permits it.
