New role created and Security zone.

[Former Member]

When I create the new role and I need to set the properties for that role. Then after I try to add this role to user and have user test the access.

Why there are some error happen and I need to go to 'security zone' by follow path from the error, then my new role into security zone, then user can access without any problem.

Please anyone explain why do we need to add role again in security zone even though we already set the property to that role in 'content administration.' Please let me know the difference. Thank you very much.

Hi,

Security Zones are used to prevent unauthorized users from accessing iviews, Portal Components and Portal Services through a direct url used outside of the portal environment. It will be controlled by means of progressive safety levels and permissions, which are assigned by the system administrators to authorized users in the permission editor.
