Roles Overview

A role is a specific set of tasks that can be assigned to users in Junos Space Network Management Platform. Each user is assigned one or more roles by the Super Administrator or User Administrator depending on the tasks the user is expected to perform. A user represents an individual in a security domain who is authorized to log in to Junos Space Platform and perform application workspace tasks according to assigned roles. The roles can be either predefined or user-defined.

The administrator can create a user account and assign tasks based on read-only predefined roles and read/write user-defined roles. See Creating Users in Junos Space Network Management Platform and Predefined Roles Overview. You can create user-defined roles and then create a user account, or create a user account and then modify the account. You can also use an existing user account as a template to assign roles to users with similar job types.

The Role Based Access Control > User Accounts task allows the Super Administrator or User Administrator to manage all roles by performing the following tasks:

  • View all predefined and user-defined roles on the Role Based Access Control > Roles inventory page. See Managing Roles.

  • Create user-defined roles from the Role Based Access Control > Roles > Create Role task. See Creating a User-Defined Role.

  • Modify user-defined roles by using Modify Role on the Role Based Access Control > Roles inventory page. See Modifying User-Defined Roles.

  • Delete user-defined roles by using Delete Roles on the Role Based Access Control > Roles inventory page. See Deleting User-Defined Roles.

  • Tag predefined and user-defined roles to group them for performing actions simultaneously. Select Tag It from the Actions menu on the Role Based Access Control > Roles inventory page. See Tagging an Object.

  • View all tags that exist on roles by selecting View Tags from the Actions menu on the Role Based Access Control > Roles inventory page. See Viewing Tags for a Managed Object.

  • Import roles in an XML file to Junos Space Network Management Platform. See Importing Roles to Junos Space Network Management Platform
