All versions. It has NEVER been possible to restrict views by submap, and in my
opinion, it is unlikely that it ever will, given the current structure of the
product. Permissions are assigned by file, so additional security would have
to be designed and implemented, and ovw, ipmap, and the web-client all rewritten
to check this additional security mechanism They do not do internal security
checks at this time. So a complete re-write of the GUIs would be required.
Most everyone already hates NetView security now, so I can't see making this
change. But you are welcome to make a request for product enhancement through
your Tivoli marketing rep.

thanks for your answer, but I would ask if this "not possible" is due to my
Netview version, or
is is valid for all existing versions ?

Not possible, either by web or by X-client. Access is by map not by submap.
You would ahve to create a new and separate map which contained only the views
you wanted, which might be impossible. For example, if it shows a router, it
will show all interfaces that router has.

Dimitri
