The initial agency and user setup guide differ depending on whether Forms or integrated authentication were selected during the installation.

Integrated authentication

To initially access the DVI5 system, the AD DVI system administrator specified during the installation process need to be logged into the Domain where both users and WebServer reside.

The DVI5 system will be accessible at the url: http://[hostname]/plass.id.web/default.aspx

 

When accessing the url the  AD DVI system administrator will automatically be logged into the DVI5 Silverlight application. The bottom bar will show that You are logged in as administrator.

 

Mapping groups and roles

Click the roles button on the Administration tab

When the Roles window opens the Administrator role is pre selected in the drop down. Click the Edit role button from the ribbon menu:

 

In the Edit roles dialog enter the AD group object SID, which is to be mapped to the DVI5 role. Members of the AD group will automatically be granted the permissions of the DVI5 role.

 

Create initial agency

The first agency is created as described below in the forms authentication section.

 

Creating users

Click the Users button on the administration tab.

Click the new button And enter Active Directory (in the format domain\user), friendly name, agency. 

Once the the user is added, it will appear in the grid below where name, agency and culture  can be edited.

Forms authentication

To access the DVI5 system a username and password is needed.

For the first time setup of agencies and users, the system is preloaded with a system account which has the privileges to create agencies and assign roles to users.

The login details for the system account is:

Email: SysAdmin@plass.dk

Password: P@ssw0rd

Step-by-step guide

Login

  1. Access the DVI5 system from a browser.
    Default address when working from the server is http://localhost/plass.id.web/default.aspx

    At the login page enter the System Administrator email and password from above (email is case insensitive).



    The sole purpose of the System Administrator account is to create the first agency of the given country and assign an administrator account to the agency.

  1. Select the Administration tab from the ribbon menu and click the "Agencies" button



  2. Click the "New" button and a new row is added to the grid in the "Manage Agencies" panel.
    Fill in the details of the agency. The first agency added is most likely to be marked as "Toplevel Agency" as it will have special privileges over other agencies in the country.

    The Country of this agency determines the country ownership of further agencies that this Toplevel Agency takes control of.

  3. Once the details are added, save the changes by clicking the Save Changes button (the little checkmark) in the panel tab header:
