Defining Access Control Lists

The /AgentSetup/accessControlList variable controls which users are authorized to connect to an agent in which modes from which hosts.

The following table explains the agent connection modes.

Changing connection mode behavior

By default, the PATROL Agent runs discovery, collection, and recovery actions as the defaultaccount, and commands run from the System Output window, InfoBoxes, and menus are run using the console connection account.

The default behavior is changed by using the following PATROL Agent variables:

/AgentSetup/<appl>.OSdefaultAccount" = {REPLACE="<user>"}
 /AgentSetup/<appl.inst>.OSdefaultAccount" = {REPLACE="<user>" }
 /AgentSetup/<appl>.OSdefaultAccountAppliesToCmds" = {REPLACE="no"}
