How policies are determined for a remote control session
When a remote control session is requested, a number of factors must be considered when the permissions and policies are determined for the session. The policies and permissions for the various entities that are involved in the session are considered. These entities are user, user groups to which the user belongs, target, and target groups to which the target belongs. The different sets of policies must be resolved following rules of precedence. The result is a single set of policies and permissions for each session.
Users and targets are assigned to groups that have policies and permissions defined. The permissions that are defined in these groups are known as their standard or normal set of permissions.
- The permission sets that are defined for immediate user to target group relationships.
- The permission sets that are defined for relationships between parent and grandparent groups.
