The following table describes the Logins Settings

Logins Settings

Field or Option

Description

Login may not have a profile from a different partition

Not supported in this version

Profile may not restrict by hierarchial location

Select this check box if you do not want user profiles to be restricted by hierarchial locations

Allow profile to be bound to hierarchial locations per assignment

Select this check box if you want user profiles to be restricted by hierarchial locations

On setting these changes, a user is able to associate a location to a login, thereby granting privileges to the login user for devices in that location. Also a a user can be associated to several profiles and the one with higher privileges is applied to the login user.

Tip   To associate profiles to a hierarchical location, you must check both Profile may not restrict by hierarchial location and Allow profile to be bound to hierarchial locations per assignment.

Notes   If the user does not select the fields that associate profiles to locations, the user profile actions are not restricted to the locations or sub-locations that they belong. The configuration settings would then reflect the previous CPAM 1.5.1 release.

Changes to system configuration settings do not take effect until  you log out (select Logout from Options menu) and log back into the ICPAM application.
