2.6.4.5 Using Roles Based Authorization Command Policies
Where the system users and groups functions allows administrators to define
who has access to the NetScaler system, Roles Based Authorization (RBA)
allows definition as to what systems users and groups are permitted to access
on the NetScaler system. To create these definitions, administrators use
command policies to regulate what commands, command groups, vservers, or
any other NetScaler element system users and groups are permitted to use.
Here are the key points to keep in mind when using command policies.
z The NetScaler 9000 system has a fixed default DENY system command
policy. In practice, this has several effects.
z There can be no globally bound system command authorization policy.
Command policies can be bound directly to system users and groups only.
z Users or groups with no associated command policies are subject to the
default DENY command policy and will therefore not be able to execute
any commands until policies are expressly bound to them.
