# User Accounts and Role-Based Access Control

To log in to the GridServer Administration Tool, you must have an account and password. GridServer supports a customizable system of role-based access control to provide account security and enable different users to access different areas of the interface.

User accounts are assigned one or more Security Roles. Each Security Role defines a set of permissions. A permission is the approval to use, see, or access a GridServer resource. There are four default Security Roles: Configure, Manage, Service, and View. The Configure role is for administrators and allows access to any part of the Administration Tool. By default, the root account you created at installation is set to the Administer role; you can also create accounts with full access for other administrative users. Users accounts assigned other Security Roles have more limited access; some pages and features either function differently, or are not available or visible.

You can create custom roles by going to the Admin > User Admin > Role Admin page and selecting Create New Role from the global actions menu. This enables you to create a new role, then add or remove what permissions are available to user accounts assigned that role. You can also use the editor to add or remove permissions from the predefined roles.

For more information about configuring user accounts and security roles, see About Authentication and Authorization.
