Abstract
A method and apparatus are disclosed for configuring access privileges in a system of networked devices. A plurality of access identities is selected and information of access privileges of each of the selected access identities to accessible functions of networked devices is retrieved. The access privileges of the selected access identities for each one of said accessible function of each one of said networked devices is accumulated. The accumulated access privileges are presented for each one of said accessible function of each one of said networked devices in an interface allowing editing of the accumulated access privileges. Change in accumulated access privileges to a specific function in a specific networked device is indicated, and the specific function of the specific networked device is configured for allowing access by the selected users in accordance with the indicated change of accumulated access privileges.
