Configuration Dashboard

The configuration dashboard is a portal page that provides a graphical overview of the entities (users, resources, and roles) in a specified configuration, and the connections between them.

A graphic at the top of the page summarizes the users, resources, and roles in the specified configuration.

In the configuration shown, there are 69 users, 97 roles, and 83 resources. There are 345 user-role connections, and the role hierarchy contains 23 role-role connections.

A series of bar charts summarize the connections between users, roles, and resources. The following types of links are described:

Direct Connection

Only an explicit, direct link connects two entities. There are no implicit links between them due to parent-child inheritance in the role hierarchy.

Indirect Connection

Two entities are connected only through a role, or through parent-child inheritance of links in the role hierarchy. There is no direct link between them.

Dual Connection

Two entities are linked both directly through an explicit link, and indirectly through the role hierarchy.
