8.2.1 Access control

The access control framework has changed significantly from WebSphere
Commerce Suite V5.1.
In WebSphere Commerce Suite V5.1, high level access control was controlled
using role based access control, defined by the ACCCMDGRP, ACCCUSTEXC and
ACCMBRGRP tables, specifying which member groups were allowed to access
which commands and views. Fine grained resource control would be defined
programmatically in WebSphere Commerce Suite V5.1.
In WebSphere Commerce V5.6 the access control framework has changed to be
policy based. This means that commands, views and data beans can be grouped
into resource groups for which access control can be specified using acc ess
control policies. Access control in WebSphere Commerce V5.6 is typically
configured using the acpload utility. Refer to the WebSphere Commerce
InfoCenter for details of implementing access control.
