The User and Group Library interface is where you can create, modify, and remove individual user accounts or groups of users from WhatsUp Gold. Upon accessing the library, the list of current users is displayed along with any assigned group memberships and authentication type. Use the following controls to administer WhatsUp Gold users and groups:
Click Add, then select from the dropdown menu that appears to create a new User or Group.
Select any user account displayed, then click Edit to modify the settings for that user, Remove to delete the user from WhatsUp Gold entirely, or Copy to create a new user account using the settings and permissions for the selected account as a template.
Select Enable Device Group Access Rights to allow the selected user to view and/or modify settings for specific groups and devices. This feature can be used when a network environment has multiple administrators and a single admin user needs to edit only those groups that are pertinent to them. It allows them to grant each user permissions for only those devices for which that user is responsible. Please note, to add a device to a group, a user must have Group Write rights to that group.
Click Password Policy to manage settings specific to password usage with WhatsUp Gold including expiration, retention, lockout, and reuse.
