Set Up User Accounts

One predefined user account, admin, is included with the installation of CA Network Flow Analysis. The admin account has full administrative privileges.

The CA Performance Center administrator must create a user account for each person who will use the product--administrators and operators. Custom user accounts enhance security and take advantage of the narrowly defined role rights that determine access to product features and data.

Custom user accounts are best deployed in a well-planned system that includes custom groups. Custom groups are assigned as permissions to let product operators view only the data, menus, and dashboards that they need to perform their daily tasks.
