Areas of responsibility

NOTE

You must have User Management Read and Write privileges to view, add, modify, or delete operational areas of responsibility.

An area of responsibility (AOR) allows you to place Fabrics, Hosts, Products, Product Groups, Port Groups, and Application products into management groups that can be assigned to an Management application user. Users can manage only the Fabrics, Hosts, Products, Product Groups, Port Groups, and Application products in the AOR assigned to them, because only devices their AOR display in the Product List and Topology Map.

For example, devices 10.10.10.1, 10.10.10.2, and 10.10.14.3 may be placed in AOR Group 1. This AOR group can then be assigned to UserA. When using the Management application, UserA will be able to create configurations, generate reports, and perform backups only to entries in AOR Group 1 (which consists of devices 10.10.10.1, 10.10.10.2, and 10.10.14.3).
