To Turn on Role Based Access Control for Ross Platform Manager

From DashBoard you can select whether the Role Based Access Control (RBAC) of Ross Platform Manager is applied to Ultrix Carbonite Mosaic.

Important: Changing the RBAC mode may restrict access to the switcher if your account is not assigned to a role that has the required permission.
Note: RBAC settings are not stored in switcher sets or changed with a factory default.
  1. Click Navigation Menu > Configuration > System > Global


  2. Click the Authorized Connections button and enter the IP address of any trusted DashBoard systems that you want to allow access to the switcher without RBAC permissions.
    Tip: A common trusted system would be a TouchDrive control panel. This allows the control panel with a DashBoard interface to continue to control the switcher without the need for a user to log in.


  3. Click a Role Based Access Control button to apply access control to the switcher.
