Creating Users

You can create users and assign roles to allow users access to Junos Space workspaces. Each user account must include a login ID, password, first name, and last name. For each user, you can assign roles that define the tasks and objects (devices, users, services, and so forth) that the user can access and manage. You can assign multiple roles to a single user and assign the same role to multiple users.

Note: A user can access all the objects within the workspace that the assigned role controls.

Creating a User Without Assigning A Role

You can create a user without assigning any roles, and then at a later date, use the Modify User option to assign roles to the user.

  1. From the task ribbon, select the Users workspace.
  2. From the task ribbon, select the Manage Users icon
  3. From the task ribbon, select the Create User icon. The Create User dialog box is displayed.
