Transport security is typically provided by TLS.<\/p>\n<p>Authentication methods include Active Directory, Certificate Authentication Services (CAS), LDAP, RADIUS, SAML, TACACS+, and of course Local (on-board) accounts.<\/p>\n<p>Documentation is available through the Help panel in your Grid Manager GUI or the Infoblox Support Portal (<a href=\"https:\/\/support.infoblox.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">https:\/\/support.infoblox.com\/<\/a>) and is an excellent resource.

This gives you greater security and control over how the users access your Infoblox services.<\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-size: large;\"><strong>Summary<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Providing access to administrators based upon their administrative and operational needs is important to allow delegation\/distribution of administrative duties. \u00a0By use of permissions based upon roles, least-privilege access can be easily achieved. Use of the RESTful web API (WAPI) allows you to remove the need for GUI access when localized specific access is required.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There are many features that come as a surprise to our customers, and we&#8217;ve often heard, &#8220;didn&#8217;t know you could do that&#8221;. \u00a0One of these features is Role Based Access Control (RBAC).
