When you first create a user group, the user group does
not have any users designated as members. You must manually add users
to the group unless LDAP authentication is enabled.
Before you begin
You must be assigned the Appliance administration permission
to perform these steps.
About this task
Use the following steps to add or remove a user from a user
group using the
WebSphere® DataPower® XC10 Appliance user interface.
Procedure
- Navigate to .
- Click the <group_name> to select a group to modify.
- If you want to modify the description of the user group,
click the existing description and enter the changes that you want
to make.
- If you want to add a user to the group, then type the user
that you want to add and then click the <user_name>
As you type the user name, a list of users matching what
you have typed is displayed. You must click the user name to add the
user to the group. Typing in user name does not add the user to the
group. Adding a user to a user group results in the user being assigned
the permissions of the user group. The previous level of permissions
assigned to the user is not retained.
Note: If LDAP Authentication is enabled, then you cannot modify the membership
of a group within WebSphere DataPower XC10 Appliance.
- Modify the permissions assigned to the group.
The following permissions are available to be applied to a user
group:
- Appliance administration
- Appliance monitoring
- Data cache creation
For more information about these permission settings, see User permissions.
- If you want to remove a user from the group, Click the [remove] link next to the user you want to remove. No confirmation is required to remove the user, therefore use appropriate
caution when you are managing your user group. If a user is removed
from all groups, besides the Everyone group, then the user retains
the permissions that assigned to the last group from which they were
removed.
Results
You have completed the modifications to your user group.
