Setting up network resources

This section shows you how to set up network resources for management via Bravura Identity .

All shared resources to which users are going to request access must be correctly configured on the target system. Bravura Identity ’s ability to successfully control access to the resources depends heavily on how the resources are configured on the target system.

Some thought must be given to planning how many groups need to be created and what resources they will have permission to access, so that adding/removing a user’s membership in a group provides them with the exact access to network resources that they need. To provide access to resources on a resource by resource basis, you need to create a group for each resource.

In general, you must do the following:

  1. Create groups with appropriate permissions to control access to the resources that are going to be managed by Bravura Identity .

  2. Ensure that each group has an owner (recommended).

    Bravura Identity can use group owners as authorizers for requests to join the group. See for more information.Groups

  3. Ensure that all resources to be managed have the correct groups assigned to them.

The nrcifs program, shipped with Connector Pack in the agent directory, binds Bravura Identity to a specific resource whose access is mediated by membership in an Active Directory group. Before Bravura Identity can administer user access to resources you must configure the resources in the domain. This section details how to configure:
