Access Levels on GigaVUE-FM

When in RBAC mode in GigaVUE-FM, any admin level user can add a node to the GigaVUE-FM. However, when adding the node credentials, if the node credentials do not match the privileges on the node, the admin user from GigaVUE-FM will not be able to manage the node.

To manage the node from GigaVUE-FM, the admin username and password has to match exactly the username and password on the node with the same privileges.

To understand more on the level of privileges and how to manage them on GigaVUE-FM versus on the node, refer to the Figure 272: Graphical Representation of User Databases and Management, Table 1: Access Levels from GigaVUE-FM for Scenario in Figure 1: Graphical Representation of User Databases and Management when “Use Node Credentials Entered During Add Physical Node” Button is NOT Selected, and Table 2: Access Levels from GigaVUE-FM for Scenario in Figure 1: Graphical Representation of User Databases and Management when “Use Node Credentials Entered During Add Physical Node” Button is Selected
