Role Based Access Control (RBAC) is a feature within PCCU32 that is designed to allow an
administrator to designate roles and control access levels to various applications and processes in the
flow computer. RBAC security files are supported by
Each security file may be configured for the specific device type.
When designing an RBAC security system, it will be necessary to consider all required user-access to
the system and assign roles for each user. Each user, including an administrator, should be created
and assigned a default role.
RBAC security configuration restricts applications and disables functions that are not approved for the
current user. Restricted applications are hidden from view in the PCCU32 navigation tree and
functions that are restricted are disabled. When an application with read-only functionality is
accessed, the Send button is also grayed out.
NOTICE – Security override: After RBAC is implemented, it overrides the device-enforced
bi-level security and PCCU32-enforced security. When RBAC is enforced, it replaces all other
security and is specifically implemented on a port-by-port basis.
