Connecting a Participant to the Deployment

If we wish for an actual user to participate in the exercise, we must connect them to the deployment. To do so, we must connect an entity to a user account in Ranger, in the Deployments sub-menu Entity-Selector.

Connecting the entity to a user account is done by selecting the entity on the left side and the user account on the right side.

The left side of the selector will give us all entities present in the SDL file. The right side will give us all users connected to the deployments AD group.

Below we can see the entire Entity Tree as depicted in the SDL.

After connecting the entity to a user account, the user will be able to see the Deployments they are connected to. Under which they have access to the following information:

  • The Banner set by the exercise manager for this exercise
  • The VM credentials they have been assigned
  • Scores for the current deployment related to his TLO
  • Any triggered Events for VMs they have access to
  • A submission form for manual Metrics
