What are the two types of permissions?

• A. Global and Object Permissions
• B. User and System Permissions
• C. Read and Write Permissions
• D. Access and Control Permissions

Answer: (A)

Infoblox permissions are structured in two levels: Global permissions and Object permissions. Global permissions control access across the entire system, applying to all objects and data within the appliance or grid. Object permissions, by contrast, are granular and apply to specific objects or categories of objects, such as particular DNS records, zones, or DHCP ranges. This setup lets you grant broad capabilities to a role while restricting exact data you can touch, enabling precise control over what a user can view or modify. For example, someone might have global read access to see everything, but only object-level write access to A records in a specific zone. The two-level model of Global permissions and Object permissions captures how access can be scoped both broadly and narrowly. Other terms like Read/Write describe actions rather than the scope of access, so they don’t denote the two distinct permission levels.
