Creating New Profiles
Creating New Profiles
You can create profiles to allow users to perform specific tasks within CWM. For example, you can
create a profile to give a user read privilege for Network Topology or create and modify privileges for
Connection Manager.
You create profiles through the New Profile window of the Security Manager main window. When the
New Profile window is first displayed, as shown in Figure 6-7, boxes that are shown in bold typeface
are the only ones that can be selected.
Access Privileges
Security Management is provided at the application level. Users are granted access to controlled
applications depending on their access privileges.
Using the New Profile window, you can create a security profile to give a user read, create, modify, or
delete privileges to one or more of the controlled applications. You can set up a profile to grant all
privileges to one of the applications and some privileges to another application. You can create a profile
for users who only require read access to enable them to observe an application’s windows, and at the
same time provide detailed security control. Detailed information about which functions are available is
presented with the applications.
The functionality for access privileges depends on the application. Privileges are mapped to different
functions in different applications.
Table 6-1 lists the access privileges for CWM applications.
