Cisco Systems CRS-1 Series manual User Administration Application

Chapter 4 User Administration Application

Router control, configure, or monitor operational tasks are represented by task IDs. A task ID defines the permission to execute an operation. Users are associated with sets of task IDs (a task group) that define their authorized access to the router.

Task IDs are assigned to users through the following means. Each user is associated with one or more user groups. Every user group is associated with one or more task groups. In turn, every task group is defined by a set of task IDs. A user’s association with a particular user group links that user to a particular set of task IDs. A user associated with a task ID can execute any of the operations associated with that task ID.

A task group is defined by a collection of task IDs. Task groups contain task ID lists for each class of task IDs. Each user group is associated with a set of task groups applicable to the users in that group. A user’s task permissions are derived from the task groups associated with the user groups to which that user belongs.

See Figure 4-1for an example of the User Administration application.
