An enterprise manager user will receive notification emails from the cloud administrators about physical machines and their enterprise's VMs on the platform.

By default, a tenant administrator or cloud administrator user is an enterprise manager for the enterprise that they belong to.

To make a user an enterprise manager:

  1. Assign the user a role with the "Define enterprise manager privilege". See Manage Roles. You can edit the user's existing role or assign a new role with this privilege.

Restrict user access to the platform by networks

By default, users can access the platform from any network address. To restrict access, when the administrator creates or edits a user, they can allow a set of network addresses.

Privileges: Manage allowed user CIDRs

To only allow access from a set of network addresses for a specific user via console and API:

  1. Go to UsersEdit userAdvanced

  2. Enter the Allowed CIDRs to specify the network addresses that the user can access the platform from, using CIDR notation

    • The user's Allowed CIDRs will have priority over the allowed CIDRs that are inherited from the user's role and/or scope

    • The inherited CIDRs will only display if the user has no Allowed CIDRs

    • In the API, you can add a comma delimited list of addresses in CIDR format
