How to Configure Administrative Roles

As part of an administrative profile, administrative roles define the operative permissions and restrictions of an administrative user to the different services of the Barracuda Firewall Control Center and the managed Barracuda CloudGen Firewalls. When configuring administrative roles, you can define which services the administrative user is allowed to access and which operations they are allowed or denied to perform on the services. You can then assign the role to an administrative profile (see How to Configure Administrative Profiles).
