Elements

User Group column—Lists the names of the existing user groups in alphabetical order. Click the column header to sort the table alphabetically in ascending and descending order. There are four predefined user groups:

• Administrator—A user group that has full access to the Junos Scope software (Settings menu) and read and write privileges to Junos Scope managed devices. The initially configured Junos Scope installer and administrative user is always part of this user group. The administrator user group has read-write access to all devices. If you import Junos Scope settings or upgrade from a release earlier than Junos Scope 8.2, any user having a superuser permission level is added to this user group.

• Read-write user—A user group that has read-write privileges to Junos Scope managed devices and operations. If you import Junos Scope settings or upgrade from a release earlier than Junos Scope 8.2, any user having read-write permission is added to this user group.

• Read-only user—A user group that has only read privileges to Junos Scope managed devices and operations. If you import Junos Scope settings or upgrade from a release earlier than Junos Scope 8.2, any user having read-only permission is added to this user group.

• Nobody—A user group that can only log in to the Junos Scope software. The nobody user group does not have access to any Junos Scope managed devices. No devices or device groups can be associated with this user group.

Permission column—The permission level assigned to the user group. The four permission levels available are:

• Superuser—Performs all Junos Scope management functions, manage user accounts, views and modifies Junos Scope settings, and has full access to devices.
