When you change permissions models from the previous of:
To anything else, including:
- Device Based
- Graph Template Based
Cacti should warn the users that with a permission system change, there can be unexpected consequences, and that before making this change, they should understand that access to Graphs will change.
It should be noted, that the Graph Permission will continue to override any Template Restriction. So, for the documentation we should be clear that if you want the Graph Template and Device Permission Models to be the final solution, Graph permissions should be Deny by default.
Lastly, when the Permission Model is Device we should not show the Graph Templates permission tab in Users and User Groups, In addition, if the Permission Model is set to Graph Template, we should not be showing the Device permissions tab.
