Configuring channel access security
Channel access security restricts the user (as currently logged on to AppCenter) in
their use of an AppCenter channel, regardless of what bin or what media is involved.
This is different than media access security, in which the security restricts the user in
their access to the media in a bin, regardless of what channel is being used.
You can set up an access control list for each channel through the channel’s
Permissions dialog box. AppCenter uses the credential information for the current
AppCenter logon and checks it against the access control list for a channel. In this
way, AppCenter determines whether to allow or deny access to the channel’s controls.
When you set up a channel access control list, you select the permissions for the
channel as follows:
• Allow — The user can operate the channel. All channel controls are enabled.
