This page can be used to assign profiles and authorizations to Unix users, in order to grant them additional privileges. A profile defines a set of authorizations granted to the user, and commands that the user can execute with higher privileges (called execution profiles).

In addition, this section can be used to create roles, which can also have profiles and authorizations. Once a role is create, a user can inherit all of the role's privileges, which makes it easy to grant the same access rights to multiple users.
