Manage Basic Privileges

The Notification Manager intrinsically implements the Basic Privileges authorization mode, and stores the basic privileges data internally in the NM database. You can use the web pages on the Notification Website to manage the Basic Privileges user authorization.

From the Notification Website home page, you can follow the Update Notification Policies link to the Update Notification Policies web page where links are provided to let you create, modify, or delete a login name. For details on completing these tasks, see the online help.

Notes:

• Before you can manage these basic privileges, you must have the Manage All Logins privilege. For this reason, you may want to use the NM Built-in NmAdmin administrator login account during the early stages of the website setup.
• You must ensure that whatever login names and passwords you create correspond to the accounts that are to be authenticated with the external authentication services, either the Windows user account or the LDAP directory account.

By default, a newly created login has the same sets of privileges that the NM Built-in NmGuest guest login user has. The authorized administrator can use this login as a basis and adjust the privileges as appropriate for a particular login user. The authorized administrator can also adjust the privileges assigned to the "NmGuest" account to change the defaults for all future new logins.
