Chapter 11: Managing Users and Roles
Wave Global Administrator Guide
Wave comes with the following two roles:
•
Administrators. You cannot delete this role, but you can edit some of its settings. By
default the role has full permissions. You can disallow only the following permissions:
• Log on via a station
• Log on via a trunk
• Log on via a SIP trunk
• Place external calls when logged on via a trunk
• Place external calls from a station
• Forward or route calls to external numbers
• Return calls when logged on via a trunk
The Admin user belongs to the Administrators role by default.
•
Users. By default new users belong to this role.
Assigning users to a role
The quickest way to assign a batch of users to a role is to edit the role and add the users. See
“Creating a new role” on page 11-106.
You can also assign a user to a role by editing the user. See “The Security tab” on page 11-82.
Editing a role
To edit an existing role, double-click it in the Users view. For further instructions, see the next
section.
When editing a role, be aware of the following:
• When you change a role’s permissions, those permissions change for all users belonging
to the role, except where a user’s individual permission setting overrides the role, or
where a user’s other role provides a more permissive setting.
• When you remove a user from a role, the user loses all permissions granted by that role.
• The Administrators role can only be edited in limited ways.
