Permissions

If you need to assign different permissions to employees in your enterprise to control their access to your cloud resources, you can use the Identity and Access Management (IAM) for fine-grained permissions management. IAM provides functions such as identity authentication, permissions management, and access control.

On the IAM console, you can create IAM users and assign permissions to control their access to specific resources. For example, you can create IAM users for software developers and assign permissions to allow them to use enterprise router resources but disallow them from performing any high-risk operations such as deleting such resources.

IAM is free of charge.

For more information, see IAM Service Overview.

Enterprise Router Permissions

By default, new IAM users do not have any permissions assigned. You need to add them to one or more groups and attach policies or roles to these groups so that these users can inherit permissions from the groups and perform specified operations on cloud services.

An enterprise router is a project-level service deployed in a specific region. You need to select a project for which the permissions will be granted. If you select All projects, the permissions will be granted for all the projects. You need to switch to the authorized region before accessing an enterprise router.

Table 1 lists all the system-defined policies on enterprise routers.

**Table 1** System-defined policies on enterprise routers
System Policy	Description	Type	Dependency
ER FullAccess	Administrator permissions for enterprise routers. Users with such permissions can operate and use all resources on enterprise routers.	System policy	None
ER ReadOnlyAccess	Read-only permissions for enterprise routers. Users with such permissions can only view data on enterprise routers.	System policy	None

Table 2 lists the common operations supported by each system-defined policy. You can select a proper one as required.
