Permissions

Windows authentication configuration options can be set/modified by clicking on Set Permissions. The PROXY Pro Host Security Settings window appears.
 
One of the strongest features of PROXY Pro is the availability of fine-grained permissions. PROXY Pro Master users or groups can be added or deleted from three different sets of permissions:
 
u   "Service Security tab", defines permissions for services on this Host for the user or group selected.
u   "Admin Security Tab", defines permissions for access to the PROXY Pro Host Control Panel window.
u   "Settings Security tab", defines permissions for modifying configuration settings for the PROXY Pro Host Control Panel window.
 
An access control policy, comprised of a specific set of permissions, can be assigned to one or more PROXY Pro Master users or groups in the network. A common configuration approach is to create role-based access control policies and assign them to specific groups of users in the network (e.g. Senior Administrators may be granted more permissions than Junior Administrators).
 
NOTE: If Windows authentication is selected, all Gateway-managed connections require that a PROXY Pro Gateway domain user account with full access and administrative rights be configured on the Host computer.
 
NOTE: As long as the PROXY Pro Gateway is on the known list of PROXY Pro Gateways on the Host’s Gateways tab, the Host will automatically add that Gateway’s user account to its security settings list with full access rights.
