case, simply remove permission from the Sales User group to deny them

 

access to monitoring feature of fax port 2. All other user groups, except

 

those belonging to the sub-group Sales User, can still monitor the modem.

Security Glossary

Irrevocable Permission—A permission that is granted to users because they

 

belong to a pre-defined group with permissions that cannot be changed. The

 

server supervisor, account supervisors, CommWorks IP Fax Solutions manager,

 

CommWorks IP Fax user and Assistant groups all have irrevocable permissions.

 

Default Permission—A permission that is granted to users because they belong

 

to a pre-defined group with the permissions. The difference between default

 

permissions and irrevocable permissions is that you can change Default

 

Permissions.

 

Owned By Self—Any object that users can create or is owned by them has a

 

group labeled “Owned By Self”. This group gives the creator or owner of an

 

object more permissions for objects they own than for objects that are owned by

 

other people. Some objects that users create are faxes, attachments and cover

 

pages. Some objects users own are received faxes and their user profile.

 

Member—Each group of users or objects can have members. Members are

 

individuals or sub-groups that belong to a group.

 

List—Users with the list permission can see that the object or user exists, although

 

they may not be able to use it. Generally, the user or User group must have this

 

permission before they are granted another permission for the object. For

 

example, a user that has the Use Attachment permission without the List

 

Attachment permission will never see the attachment to select it; therefore, the

 

user cannot ‘use’ the attachment.

 

Account #— Every user belongs to one account. Accounts are named using

 

account numbers (Account #’s). The Account # to which each user belongs is

 

displayed in the “User Properties” dialog. Properties for these Account #’s are also
