How To Configure Profile/Device Mapping


Use the Profile/Device Mapping tab to specify which profile will be used by each Authorization Group when communicating with a specific device. The Read credential of the NetSight Administrator profile is used for device Discovery and status polling. All other SNMP communications will use the profiles specified here.

Instructions for:

Assigning Profiles to Devices

Devices selected in the left (tree) panel appear in the table in the right panel together with the current profile assignments associated with each Authorization Group. The Table Editor button activates the editing row where specific profile selections can be made.

To assign profiles:

  1. Click or choose Authorization/Device Access from the Tools menu. Select the Profile/Device Mapping tab in the Authorization/Device Access window.
  2. Select one or more devices or device groups in the left (tree) panel.
  3. Select one or more rows (devices) in the table and click   Table Editor button.
  4. Click in the Table Editor Row (at the bottom of the table) for the Authorization Group that you are configuring and select a profile from the drop-down list.
  5. Repeat steps 3 and 4 until you have finished assigning profiles.

      NOTE: The NetSight Administrator column shows the profile used by the NetSight Administrator group. The profile listed/selected for each Authorization Group column will be used by that group when communicating with the associated device and, as a result, defines the level of access granted to users that are members of that Authorization Group.

  6. Click Apply (Apply) to set the selected profiles for your Authorization Groups/devices.
