This includes access control at the role level for menu navigation, inventory visibility and configuration of inventory entities including host groups, service groups, and custom groups. Menu Editor — The Menu Editor feature allows administrators to customize the GroundWork menu by modifying top-level and sub-menu items. Each of the menu items can be assigned secure access by role to determine who can access. LDAP Mapping — GroundWork Monitor can authenticate/authorize through GroundWork or LDAP/AD. Administrators can configure LDAP mapping of LDAP containers to GroundWork roles from one or more domains, and reorder domains to control which are used.
