Working with security groups
This topic provides instructions on adding and editing security groups based on the endpoint manager. Starting 21.02.01, TrueSight Automation Console also supports TrueSight Network Automation as an endpoint manager.To understand the concept of security groups, see Security-groups.
Adding a security group
On the Administration > Manage Security Groups page, click Add Security Group and do these steps:
- Select a role from the Group Name field, and add an optional description. The roles (Server Automation) and realms (TrueSight Network Automation) available in the endpoint manager appear in the list.
The connector field shows the host name of the endpoint manager. - (For Server Automation only) In the Default Depot Path field, click Browse to select the default location in Server Automation where you want to store the depot items.
Depot items generated by users in this group get stored in this location. (For Server Automation only) In the Default Job Path field, click Browse to select the default location in Server Automation where you want to store jobs.
Jobs created by users in this group get stored in this location. - Click Add.
The security group is added and is displayed on the Manage Security Groups page.
Viewing a list of security groups
On the Administration > Manage Security Groups page, you can view all the groups in Automation Console. Information such as the name, description, connector type, and the connector host and port details are displayed.
Editing a security group
After a security group is added, for the TrueSight Network Automation endpoint manager, you can only make changes to the description, and for TrueSight Server Automation, you can make changes to the description, default depot and job paths where the depot items and jobs are to be saved in Server Automation.
You cannot update the role or realm for a security group.
On the Administration > Manage Security Groups page, click Edit against the security group, make changes, and click Update.
