Device Authorization defines which device’s SNMP and NetFlow metrics are visible by group members. By default, all devices are available for all roles. Restricting visibility to selected devices can be accomplished by filtering devices, sites, or regions.

To restrict authorization to a specific device(s), click Add.

Filters can be applied by Device, Site, or Region.

Config roles can optionally have CLI access for managing QOS, IPSLA, etc. in the EngJneering Console.

In the following example, the devices matching the filters would be authorized for monitoring by this Group:

Operations Dashboard (WebUI) page access can be limited per role:

Below is a table showing the pages only available to Admin and Config Roles:

In this example, only Dashboards and Entity Pages (Sites/Devices/Interfaces/WAN Applications) will be available on the Navbar for this Group:

Do note that even though the Navbar may be restricted, some drill-down workflows will still allow limited functionality to pages not directly available from the Navbar. Using the previous example, where Dashboards were one of the limited options made available, these pages allow drill-down to reports, but the reports are limited to just the results.

Select the users of interest and click Add.

In this example, users Charles and Bill will be a member of this group.

The new Group will now be listed on the Group Management page.
