There are three roles in SCP's user management:

• Platform Admins (admin)

• Tenant

• Tenant Users

Typically, we only use the Platform Admins (admin) to manage the Platform, the Tenant and Tennant Users are only utilized in Multi-tenant, CSP(Cloud Service Provider), MSP(Managed Service Provider) scenarios.

For example, a company (platform) has multiple departments (tenants), and each department has several employees (tenant user). Several tenants can be allocated on the Sangfor cloud computing platform, corresponding to each department. Several tenant users can be allocated under the tenants, corresponding to the department's employees. The company needs to designate a platform administrator (admin), and each department needs to designate a tenant.

In CSP/MSP scenario, we may need to create a MSP administrators to issue resource pool quotas to the MSP, allowing the MSP administrator to assign them himself. For example, in a hosting cloud/operator scenario, the company headquarters has purchased a large-scale resource pool, and resources need to be allocated to each branch. The branch needs to create tenants for each department or group.

This section covers only the Platform admins and related settings. For operations related to Tenant and Tenant users, MSP Administrators should refers to Multi-tenant chapters.
