EHX user rights management operation
- ernie addow
User rights are normally used when you have multiple matrices linked (trunked) together in a facility
example , where you may have a MCR matrix , Studio 1 matrix , Studio 2 matrix, Studio 3 matrix and a News Matrix etc..
Each technical engineer for each studio will want to access and edit the configuration related to their matrix at any one time without disturbing the other technical engineers in the other studios. However we want to ensure , that no studio engineer breaks the trunks lines interconnecting the matrices when they edit their map
In this instance we would install EHX in a client/ server mode
Install the server version of EHX application on to a Server PC
install the client version of EHX application on the client PCs
If you only have 2-3 matrices in your network and 1-2 people need access to edit the configurations. We recommend using normal a KVM or Remote PC solution.
This means only one person at a time can edit any of the configurations
EHX has four access levels:
Access level |
| comments |
Network Admin | Full access |
|
Local Admin | Limited access Less access than Admin | The local administrator level provides unrestricted access to all configuration settings on the local system the user is logged in to. Cannot change trunk limes or edit (add /remote) items that affect trunk lines Adding cards , changing PL / fixed group entries as they may have to download to other matrices |
User | Limited access less access than Local admin | Not able to do firmware download or no access monitoring access Can do confirmation changes |
Guest | Limited access Less access than user | Limited to do panel programming and online changes |
The basic rules are only one user can edit (write) to a matrix-configuration at any one time
If a Network Admin logs in then they lock out all other users expect Guest user
Because Network Admin has full write access to all matrices in the project
If no network admin is logged in then you can have multiple local admins or Users logged in
They can only log into the matrices they have access to
Guest users can still log in
Therefore you can have
Local admin #1 editing matrix 1 at the same time as user #2 editing matrix #2 at the same time
Once a matrix is being edited all other admin / users that have write access are locked out including the Network Admin user from that specific matrix
