Role Mapping For Groups
User role mapping allows you to fine-tune the way Active Directory synchronization is performed. Administrators and read-only administrators are synchronized according to your User Directory structure.
The following role mapping options are available:
| Role | Description |
|---|---|
| Auditor | Users in groups specified in the list will be licensed as auditors |
| Global Supervisor | Users in groups specified in the list will be licensed as global supervisors |
| Administrator | Users in groups specified in the list will be licensed as administrators |
| Readonly Administrator | Users in groups specified in the list will be licensed as readonly administrators |
| Helpdesk Administrator | Users in groups specified in the list will be licensed as helpdesk administrators |
The local administrator account is also a supervisor. This ensures that you have one supervisor active at all times.
It is possible that a user is part of two or more groups where the groups were mapped to different kind of MetaDefender Managed File Transfer roles. As a user can only have one role assigned to it, the following order of precendence is applied:
- Administrator
- Readonly Administrator
- Helpdesk Administrator
- Auditor
- Global Supervisor
For example; Active Directory group A is mapped to the Administrator role while group B is mapped to the Auditor role. An active directory user who is member of both groups will have the assigned MetaDefender Managed File Transfer role of Administrator.
