    Roles

    A FireDaemon Fusion user account can be assigned either Administrator-level or User-level privileges.
    AdministratorAdministrators have full access to FireDaemon Fusion and the systems on the network running Fusion.

    An Administrator has access to all FireDaemon Fusion functions:
    • View Quick Stats: Allows users to view the Quick Stats tab.
    • Manage FireDaemon Services: Allows users to view, add, edit, start, stop, and remove FireDaemon Pro services within the FireDaemon services tab.
    • Manage System Services: Allows users to view, add, edit, start, stop, and remove Windows System services within the System services tab.
    • Can Shutdown Computer: Allows users to shut down a computer configured as a node.
    • Can Restart Computer: Allows users to restart a computer configured as a node.
    • Can Browse Folders: Allows users to browse folders on a computer where Fusion is installed.
    UserA User's access to the above FireDaemon Fusion functions is assigned by an administrator.

    A user account must have access to at least one function. Beyond that, a user account may be given access to as many or as few of these functions as they need.

    A user's access privileges determine which tabs are visible to a user after login. For example, a user with the View Quick Stats and Manage FireDaemon Services access privileges will only be able to see those two tabs in the FireDaemon Fusion user interface. They will not be able to see the tabs for manage system services, shut down or restart a computer, or browse folders.

  4. Click the FireDaemon Services tab, and select the required permissions for the existing FireDaemon services.


  5. Click the System Services tab and select the required permissions for the configured Windows System services.


  6. After configuring all the required settings for the new user, click the Apply and Close button on the toolbar.
