Junos Space User Interface Overview

The Junos Space application design allows multiple users concurrent access to its user interface. Each user accesses the system using a Web browser.

Each user has access to the same system wide database, which ensures that each user sees current information. User access to tasks and objects is controlled by permissions assigned to the user. For example, a service provisioner will have full access to the tasks in the Service Provisioning workspace, but might not have access to Service Design tasks.

The Junos Space user interface is consistent between the Network Application Platform and other installed applications. The figures shown in this topic are from the Network Application Platform user interface.
