Access rights for any user session are determined by the user’s role-based access rights. Refer to
Chapter 1, “Introducing Web Tools” for additional information about Role-Based Access Control
(RBAC).
The User tab of the Switch Administration window (Figure 34 on page 177) displays account
information. You can create and manage accounts depending on your role. The roles and
permissions are listed in Table 16.
Virtual Fabrics considerations
If no home logical fabric ID is specified for a user, the system provides a default home ID. The
default home ID is 128.
Admin Domain considerations
For legacy users with no Admin Domain specified, the user has access to AD 0 through 255
(physical fabricadmin) if their current role is Admin. Otherwise, the user has access to AD0 only.
If some Admin Domains were defined for the user and all of them are inactive, the user is not
allowed to log in to any switch in the fabric.
If no Home Domain is specified for a user, the system provides a default home domain. The default
home domain for predefined account is AD0. User-defined accounts, the default home domain is
the Admin Domain in the user’s Admin Domain list with the lowest ID.
