The Web Access profile contains all the access rights defined for particular NetCrunch objects and their functions.

You can define access rights for any of the following program functions for a user (and save them in a Web Access profile):

As can be seen above, NetCrunch offers a wide-range of access rights which enable accessing its functions through Web access.

For example, for some program functions, you can specify different access levels for different objects or create exceptions to an inherited access level for an object.

Note: In order to view the Alerting item in the context menu of a node, the user must be granted View Alerts access right. Granting Read-only access will result in limited NetCrunch functionality.
