Roles

You can configure roles on the Roles page.

Click New role to open a form to create a new role. In this form, you can assign this role to users and configure access to specific modules. Access to the Configuration center module is available only for users with a Tenant administrator role. Some modules have their own permissions to be set, this configuration is available in special tabs in this form. You can find more info in the particular module chapters.

Migration of former roles

When updating to Flowmon 11 and newer, all roles with access to the Configuration center module will become Tenant administrators on the base tenant.

Access to the tenants is managed by roles. There are three types of roles in the context of tenant management:

• Super admin

  • Tenant administrator on the base tenant.

  • Users with this role can switch to all tenants.

  • Access to the configuration center is not restricted.

• Tenant administrator of a tenant other than the base tenant

  • The capability of this role is restricted to a home tenant and its children only.

  • Configuration center is limited only to subtenants management, presets, and logs.

• Tenant user

  • No tenant administrator role.

  • The user has access only to his home tenant.

  • Access to the configuration center is not allowed.
