Managing Operators
Typically, a service provider uses an LDAP client or SDX Admin to create one operator for each enterprise. This operator, or manager, represents the primary IT manager for the enterprise.
For information about adding an operator from SDX Admin, see Chapter 14, Configuring Subscribers and Subscriptions with the SRC CLI or Chapter 13, Configuring Subscribers and Subscriptions with SDX Admin.
The primary IT manager uses the enterprise service portal to create other managers in the directory and gives those managers privileges to manage specific sites and accesses. IT managers can perform the following tasks to manage operators with the enterprise service portals we provide:
Creating Managers
To create managers through the enterprise service portal:
- In the navigation pane of the enterprise service portal, click the object that you want the manager to control.
- Click the Managers tab in the portal.
The portal displays the Manager's page for the object.

The portal adds the new manager to the table.
