AVG 8.5 Technical FAQ » AVG Remote Administration » Admin Console
Since the last major program update of AVG Remote Administration (version 8.0.225 and higher) it is possible to set Full access control to AVG DataCenter. Full access control can be set by opening the DataCenter menu (in the top menu of AVG Admin Console) and clicking the AVG DataCenter settings... option. Then you can select the Full access control in the lower part of the settings window.
The Access control settings dialog is divided into two areas. The smaller one is called Account list. Here, the list of all user accounts is displayed, as well as their state (Active or Inactive). After left-clicking on one of the accounts you will see its description under the list. The left-clicking also activates the second area of the dialog called Settings of account, which contains two tabs – Account rights and Group access. In the account list you can do these following things too:
- Create a new account - right-click anywhere in the Account list area and select the New account... from the context menu
- Edit an existing account - right-click on one of the account within the Account list area and select Edit account... from the context menu (or double-click on one of existing accounts).
- Clone an existing account - right-click on one of the account within the Account listarea and select Clone account... from the context menu.
- Delete an existing account - right-click on one of accounts within the Account list area and select Delete account...from the context menu.
The Account rights tabcontains all actions accessible to the user of the selected account. To forbid an action, uncheck the checkbox next to its name. If you uncheck the checkbox next to the name of category (like Stations, Scans etc.), you will forbid all actions from this category.
The Group access tab allows you to set access rights to user defined groups of stations. Double-click on one of these groups to trigger a roll-down menu (or right-click on it to trigger the context menu with same contents). Now choose the permission type. You can give the user of the account the Full access to the group, allow him/her just to view the group by selecting Read only, or completely forbid him/her to access the group by choosing No access option.
