Replay of the Release Automation community webcast that took place on April 27, 2017: Webcast Recap: User Types, Access Control, and License Reporting in DevTest 10.0
Abstract:
The DevTest Access Control List (ACL) is enabled by default. Before users can access DevTest solutions, they must be “authenticated” with valid credentials. Then, they must be “authorized” to perform the tasks that are associated with their role. Administrators define a user name, a password, and a role that is composed of a set of permissions for each user.
When a user opens the Workstation, or browses to the Portal, a logon dialog is presented. Users must log in with valid credentials to access any UI (User Interface) or CLI (Command Line Interface). The user logs in with the credentials defined in DevTest (or in LDAP, if you have configured DevTest to use LDAP credentials). If the entered credentials match that of an authorized user, the UI opens. The features that are presented to the user are based on the permissions you grant to that user. If a user does not have access to certain permissions, such as a runtime user not having access to create new users, the option is grayed out or hidden.
