Using security sets

Security sets implement view, add, modify, and delete rights inside a resource configuration.

Overview of security sets
Security sets extend a SmartModel to include view, add, modify, and delete (VAMD) rights to commands inside a configuration. Once defined, you can reuse security sets for different SmartModels.
Creating security sets
You create security sets in the Resource Browser. While security sets are schema-specific, you can use them across devices with the same vendor and type. A security set must be in a realm where devices can resolve it.
Editing security sets
After you have created or copied a security set, you edit it in XML. You can use an external XML editor to create the security set XML, and then copy it into the security set.
Applying security sets to a User Group and Realm
You apply a security set to groups and realms, thereby enabling it to control configuration security.
