Limited-access admins can view and manage GLBs (Global Load Balancers), load balancer synchronization groups, and their associated objects if their administrative roles and permissions are defined. If you want to allow admins to manage GLB objects, assign the Load Balancer Admin role to limited-access admins and grant them the following permissions:
- Read/write, read-only, or deny permission to NIOS managed GLB groups and independent load balancers
- Read/write, read-only, or deny permission to NIOS managed GLB objects
- Read-only or deny permission to GLB objects, such as DNS profiles and iRules, that are synchronized from the GLB but cannot be managed through NIOS
For information about setting permissions, see Applying Permissions and Managing Overlaps. The following table lists the admin tasks and required permissions for configuring GLBs, load balancer synchronization groups, and their associated objects:
