Solution

How do you switch between accounts?

  1. When logging in, if you have been granted access to multiple accounts, an Account selection is displayed before logging in
  2. If you are already logged into an account, the top right account name will have a dropdown arrow to change account

How do you check what Accounts a user has access to?

From Control Center CLI, use the command:

ncc user-list

 

Example output

============

$ ncc user-list

Users list

Jane Doe ([email protected])

Access: active

Accounts:
 Name: Account1
  Permission: admin

 Name: Account2
 Permission: admin
  Status: owner

 

 

 

How does netrounds.conf need to be configured for LDAP authenticated users to have access to multiple accounts?

 

for @example.com

 

modify the config file: /etc/netrounds/netrounds.conf

 

Locate the section  below and add a second account block.

 

AUTH_LDAP_ACCOUNT_GROUP_MAPPING = [

{

'dn': 'ou=admins,dc=example,dc=com',

'accounts': [

{

'name': 'Account1',

'permission': 'admin'

},

{

'name': 'Account2',

'permission': 'admin'

},

]

}

]

 

So both accounts are listed.

Then restart Control center

 

Note: ncc user-list does not update until after the LDAP user has logged in.
