Learn how User Administrators can manage user permissions on the Broadcom Support Portal.
The User Administrator/Site Administrator takes on the responsibilities of approving, updating, and revoking access for users at a specific Support Site ID (Site ID). Requests for access to a site will be routed to the User Administrator instead of to Broadcom Customer Care.
Once you become a user administrator, follow the steps in this article to manage user permissions. If a Site Administrator is not assigned to an end-user's Site ID, all access and role requests will be processed by Broadcom Customer Care.
Note: Broadcom recommends end-users have at least one Site Administrator assigned to each of their organization's Support Site IDs, which provides them with additional self-service capabilities outlined in this article.
