Defining access control lists

You can define a separate ACL for change requests, tasks, or objects.

Procedure

  1. Start an Admin session.
  2. On the Action Panel, click User Management.
  3. In the User Management button bar, click the Read-Write Security tab.
  4. Under Manage Read-Write Security Through ACLs, click Edit for the type of Access Control List you are creating.
  5. Click the Edit link.

    The form used to define the rules opens.

  6. Click Add to start defining rules.
  7. In the Attribute list, select the appropriate attribute. Select None to match all attributes, or to use a specific attribute, click More Attributes.

    If you clicked More Attributes, the Choose Attributes for ACL Rules dialog box opens.

    1. Scroll through the Available Attributes list. After you have identified the attribute you need, select it, and then click Add to move it to the Chosen Attributes list. If you know all the attributes you need, select them now. If you do not, you can always add a rule for another attribute later.
    2. When you have added all attributes you need to the list, click OK.

      The dialog closes and returns you to the form.

  8. In the Attribute list, select the attribute you just added.

    For information about implementing advanced attribute capabilities, such as combining attributes, see Advanced capabilities of access control lists.

  10. In the Access list, select the appropriate value.
  11. In the Permission list, select the appropriate value.
  12. In the Users and Groups box, type the user ID of any user, or type the name of a group you defined.

    Separate multiple entries by a comma.

  13. Click the Add link to add another rule.
  14. Repeat the steps 7 - 13 until you have defined the ACLs you need.
  15. Click Save to save changes and close the dialog.
