Assigning Access to Locations & Zones
Users and Groups are set up by the Administrator (see “Controlling
Access to viewLinc” on page 35). To grant other Users or Groups
access to a specific Location or Zone, you require Location Manager
Rights, and Full Control Permission for the Location.
When authorizing access to a Location, consider the following:
•
It is easier to manage access control on Zones and Groups,
rather than on Locations and Users.
•
Build access control starting at System root folder (top down).
