Custom Admin Privileges

While Dell Networking W-ClearPass Policy Manager doesn't let you change the definition of the built-in admin

privileges, you can create and import custom ones. Customer admin privileges are defined in a specifically formatted

XMLfile and then imported into Policy Manager on the Admin Privileges page.

Create a Custom Admin Privilege

You will need a plain text or XML editor, not a word processor such as Microsoft Word, to create a custom admin

privilege.

To create a custom admin privilege

1. Using a plain text or XMLeditor (not a word processor such as Microsoft Word), create an XML file that defines a

privilege and its definition. (See the following sections for information on the XML structure, and privilege

definitions.)

2. Go to Administration > Users and Privileges >Admin Privileges.

3. Import the admin privilege file you created in step 1. See Importing for details.

The admin privilege is added to the list.

Admin Privilege XML Structure

Admin privilege files are XML files and have a very specific structure.

A header must be at the beginning of an admin privilege XMLfile and must be exactly:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>

The root tag is TipsContents. It is a container for the data in the XML file and should look like this:

⋮

</TipsContents>

Following the TipsContents tag is an optional TipsHeader tag.
