Here we walk you through the process of adding administrators for Console Access in VIPRE Endpoint Security Server.

Add Administrators for Console Access 

By default, Admin Console security provides full access for the domain and local administrators on the respective site and special considerations may be needed depending on the chosen access level (see below for details). Optionally, you can add additional users to access the site and control the access they have to it and its policies.

  1. From the Site Properties, open the User Administration screen.
  2. Click Add User and select a user from the list. 
  3. Click OK. The new user displays in the "Users" area.
  4. Under the User Access Levels area:
    1. Assign the Site Configuration Access.
    2. Assign the Policy Configuration Access for each applicable policy.
      • When configuring user access levels, please be aware of the following:
        • Read Only or None Policy Configuration Access options are applicable only on remote consoles. The console and VSS must be on separate computers.

The user must log in to the console with a local administrator account, regardless of whether the computer with the console is physically local or remote.

The local administrator account cannot also be a Domain Administrator account as Domain Administrators always have full access.

  1. To add additional users, repeat Steps 2-4.
  2. To save changes, click Apply or OK.
