Establish Default System Privileges for an Application

VTS enables you to specify a set of system privileges that will automatically be loaded for users who are not logged on to your application. These system privileges will also be automatically granted to newly-created user accounts.

The SysPrivDefault SecurityManager.ini variable enables you to do so by turning on those security bits related to each system privilege.

For example, if you wish to provide the Account View, Account Modify, and Alarm Acknowledge privileges to users who are not logged on, and to newly-created user accounts, you would set the SysPrivDefault variable as shown below:

[SECURITYMANAGER-Admin]

SysPrivDefault = 1000000110 

Note that the bits are counted from right to left.  An index of the security bits has been provided for your convenience in the section Index of System Privileges for the SysPrivSuppress Variable.

VTS also affords you the ability to define any custom application privileges that you wish to be granted to users who are not logged on to your application, and to newly-created user accounts. Instructions are provided in Establish Default Application Privileges for an Application.
