Chapter 9 User Group Assignments
Procedures
Understand User Roles
User roles in DMS-Admin are the automatic result of a logical operation. You cannot use DMS-Admin
to assign a user role directly to any user.
In some cases, users who are authorized to use more than one licensed feature of Cisco DMS. The
DMS-Admin user role that you see for a user account is based on all privileges and access settings that
the user has, combined across all of your licensed and activated features.

Table 9-1 Logic That Determines User Role Designations in DMS-Admin
User Role Logic
Admin This user role is assigned automatically to any user who is an administrator in any DMM software
module. These users have full read/write access to all users and user groups in DMS-Admin and can
manage settings for them.
ReadOnly
Caution Each user account has only the user role “ReadOnly” until you assign additional access rights and
privileges. User accounts with this role have severely limited access.
This user role in DMS-Admin is assigned automatically to any user who has not been granted any
explicit access settings or privileges in any DMM software module. These users are prevented from
logging in to any DMM software module.
