To cross-launch NEtO from NFM-P

Purpose

To cross-launch NEtO, you must belong to a user group that includes one of the following scope of command profiles that is configured with the Administrator role, or another role that has the following permissions set to Update/Execute:

  • netw.NetworkElement.method_GUICrossLaunch

  • mediation

  • security.MediationPolicy

Note:

  • For the Wavence SA, the NEtO cross-launch only occurs if the Wavence SA registration table entry has not reached the limit of 15 entries.

  • NEtO cross-launch only occurs on Windows-based NFM-P clients.

For general information about user security, creating a scope of command role, and creating a scope of command profile, see the NSP System Administrator Guide. For specific information about creating a scope of command role for NEtO access, see To configure a scope of command role for NEtO access.
