Chapter 5 Operator Logins An operator is a company's staff member who is able to log in to the Amigopod Visitor Management Appliance. Different operators may have different roles that can be specified with an operator profile; these profiles could be to administer the Amigopod network, manage guests or run reports. Operators may be defined locally on the Amigopod Visitor Management Appliance, or externally in an LDAP directory server. Accessing Operator Logins The Operator Logins management is located within the Administrator section of the Amigopod Visitor Management Appliance. Use the Operator Logins command link on the Administrator start page to access the Operator Logins features. Alternatively, use the Administrator navigation menu to jump directly to any of the features within Operator Logins. About Operator Logins The Amigopod Visitor Management Appliance supports role-based access control through the use of operator profiles. Each operator using the Amigopod is assigned a profile which determines the actions that the operator may perform, as well as global settings such as the look and feel of the user interface. Your profile may only allow you to create guest accounts, or your profile might allow you to create guest accounts as well as print reports. What your profile permits is determined by the network administrator. Two types of operator logins are supported: local operators and operators who are defined externally in your company's directory server. Both types of operators use the same login screen. Role-Based Access Control for Multiple Operator Profiles Using the operator profile editor, the forms and views used in the application may be customized for a specific operator profile, which enables advanced behaviors to be implemented as part of the role-based access control model. This process is shown in the figure below. Amigopod 3.7 | Deployment Guide Operator Logins | 109
