Task Groups Tab
Task-based authorization employs the concept of a task ID as its basic element. A task ID defines the
permission to execute an operation for a given user. Each user is associated with a set of permitted router
operation tasks identified by task IDs. Users are granted authority by being assigned to user groups that
are in turn associated with task groups. Each task group is associated with one or more task IDs selected
from the router set of available task IDs. The first configuration task in setting up the router authorization
scheme is to configure the task groups, followed by user groups, followed by individual users.
The Task Groups tab allows you to perform the following tasks:
• Specify a task group name and description.
• Configure read, write, and execute classes for tasks.
• Add, delete, and inherit task groups from the chosen task group.
See Figure 4-3 for an example of the Task Groups tab. Table 4-3 describes the Task Groups tab fields.
