User groups
A user group associates multiple users with a role, enabling them to access EDA resources. An admin user can create user groups and assign a specific role to each group according to the type of network activities the user group is meant to perform. When a role is assigned to a user group, all users within the group have the same access to resources, as specified by the role.
EDA comes with a default user group called system-administrator. Users who belong to this
group can:
- Create, update, and delete local groups
- Assign local users to local groups
- Assign remote users to local groups
- View all users and their group memberships
Viewing user groups
In the UI, you can view and manage user groups by navigating from User Groups from the drop-down
list.
. Then, select Note: LDAP groups are displayed in the User
Groups page only after they are imported from an LDAP
server.
