   2. Right-click the external group, and then click Properties.

   3. Under Group Scope, select Global.

   4. Click OK.

   The Select an External Group dialog box appears.

5. Select the external user group to which the user belongs, and then click OK.

   The group name that you selected appears in the Select an External Group box.

6. To create a security association for the appropriate level of access, on the Associated Entities tab, click Add.

   • To grant external users full access, select the CommCell entity and the Master role.

   • To limit external user access, select one of the following options:

     • A role with permissions that matches the type of user.

       User Type	Permissions Needed
       End Users	End User Access
       Compliance Search Users	Browse Compliance Search In Place Recovery (to restore data)

     • Client computers that users are allowed to browse.

       Note

       Select the entities at either the client level or the backup set level. Subclient-level browsing restrictions are not supported for the Web Console.
