This operation is similar to the tasks discussed above in the Scope Configuration section. The below table helps you to know
the wild card characters that are supported in NMS while specifying the scope criteria value.
4.5.5 Deleting Authorized Scope
The Authorized Scopes associated to a Custom View Scope can be deleted completely from the database by right-clicking
the respective Authorized Scope, and then clicking the pop-up button Delete AuthorizedView. This will display a warning
dialog box. Click Yes in the dialog box to delete the view scope.
Deleting the selected Authorized Scope of the respective Custom View Scope will remove it completely, not only from the
current selected group, but also from the other associated groups. Hence, in order to delete an Authorized Scope set for a
Custom View Scope only from the selected group, click Assign Authorized Scope and dissociate it from the current selected
group.
4.6 Permissions Tree
4.6.1 Overview
NMS operations are logically arranged in a tree structure, with parent and child operations in the tree. This tree is displayed
when assigning permissions to a group or a user. The tree is referred to as the Permissions Tree and is shown in Figure 4-
14. Permission to perform individual operations can be granted or denied for each group or user through this tree.
Note: The ability to add or delete an operation is not supported in the current release.
Note: The tree node AT Object Operations includes those operations that the NMS can perform on Allied Telesis devices.
TABLE 4-3 Operators for Setting Scope Criteria
Operator Description
* (Asterisk) This is used to match zero or more characters.
Example: If the names of all the objects starting with the name “test” is needed, then the property
Name - name and the Value test* is given.
!
(Exclamation
Mark)
This is used for filtering the search using NOT operator.
Example: If all the objects whose name does not start with “test” is required, then property key -
name and value - !test* is given.
, (Comma) This is used for searching objects where a single property key has different values.
Example: If all the objects with names starting with “abc” or “xyz” are required, then property key -
name and value “abc*,xyz*”is given
&& This is also used for searching objects where a single value should be matched with many patterns.
Example: If all the objects with names starting with either “abc” and ending with “xyz” are required,
then property key -name and value “abc*&&*xyz” is given.
\ (Back Slash) This is used when the name of the object itself contains a comma. This character is called an escape
sequence, since it avoids searching of the objects, as if it were two different names.
Example: If an object with name “a, b” has to be searched, then the property key - name and the value
- “a\, b” is given. <between>”value1” and “value2” This is used to get objects with some numeric
values within a specific range.
<between>”v
alue1” and
“value2”
This is used to get objects with some numeric values within a specific range.
Example: If object names with poll interval values ranging from 300 to 305 are required, then the
property key - pollinterval and the value as 300 and 305 is given.
Note that the first number is smaller than the second number. Only the values in between the given
values, including the limits, will be matched.
