Example - Setting Up User's Access Rights
In order to give AMX equipment users access rights to the Master, group memberships for users will be defined by the
GroupOfNames object class (refer to LDAP RFC4519). Two records need to be created in the database:
One that represents users with administrative privileges (Admin Change Password Access, Terminal (RS232)
Access, FTP Access, HTTP Access, Telnet Access, Configuration, ICSPConnectivity, and EncryptICSP
Connection).
Another that represents users with user privileges (HTTP Access). The DNs of the AMX equipment users
will be listed under the appropriate GroupOfNames object class as a member attribute.
Administrator Access Example
User Access Example
Note: If the DN of a user is in both the administrator groupOfNames and the user groupOfNames, the administrative
privileges take precedence over user privileges.
