Device Topology Access
The Device Topology node is not an object in the database and as such does not have a specific Security tab defining its accessibility and it cannot be included in the Security Profile either. It will thus always be part of the directory tree of every administrator, even if some of them cannot see anything under the top node. To view devices under this node:
- The administrator has at least the View Devices capability. The administrator must have at least read access to the devices. Be aware that he needs read access to the complete hierarchy to these devices, that is, to the master as well as all the relay hierarchy under which the devices are located.
To provide your administrator with read access to all devices in the system in the Device Topology node, the following steps must be executed:
- Create a query searching for all devices.
- Create a security access via a security profile for the administrator.
Tip: For faster searching, add an asterisk to the end of your partial query. Example: cert*
