The Security Administration System protects access to the OAS and requires local users to enter a user ID and complex password when logging in. For details, refer to the Security Administrator System Technical Bulletin (LIT-1201528) or the Change Password topic in Metasys SMP Help (LIT-1201793).
The OAS also enables you to log in using the Microsoft Active Directory® service. For details, refer to the Security Administrator System Technical Bulletin (LIT-1201528).
A user with the Administrator Role can edit the security database by adding users, modifying user IDs and passwords, and assigning object category-based privileges and system access privileges.
As Site Director, the OAS's Security Administration System function controls access to the entire site. The assigned object category-based privileges and system access privileges affect the permissions granted for the user logged in to the Site Director.
The Security database can only be viewed and modified in the online system at the Site Director by a user with the Administrator Role. For more information on System Security, including setting up roles and users, refer to the Security Administrator System Technical Bulletin (LIT-1201528).
