RBAC

Role based access control (RBAC) allows businesses to assign server, gateway, and application access permissions based on a user’s job function, or role. Avaya implements RBAC to the Messaging Server through the use of profiles for the Server web page.

Avaya customers can create and modify profiles to allow access to Avaya server and gateway information according to job functions and business needs. The following table lists the examples:
