Configure Self-Registration Template User

Changing Permissions for the Template User

When self-registration requests are approved, the new users inherit the permissions of the template user. This user has default settings, which you can view and modify by clicking template user link. On the Edit Template User page, you will find the following settings:

Option	Description
New accounts will expire	Enable this setting if you would like a self-registered user's account to expire after a set number of days. Once the account expires, Faspex deactivates the account and that user will no longer be able to log into Faspex, unless you reactivate the account. Note: In the Accounts list, inactive accounts are shown in gray. Packages sent to this user will remain on the server (if configured to do so).
New accounts will be deleted	Enable this setting if you would like a self-registered user's account to autodelete after a set number of days. Warning: If this setting is enabled, the user's account will be completely removed from the Faspex database and you cannot re-activate it. Packages sent to this user will remain on the server (if configured to do so).

Option

Description

New accounts will expire

Enable this setting if you would like a self-registered user's account to expire after a set number of days. Once the account expires, Faspex deactivates the account and that user will no longer be able to log into Faspex, unless you reactivate the account.

Note: In the Accounts list, inactive accounts are shown in gray. Packages sent to this user will remain on the server (if configured to do so).

New accounts will be deleted

Enable this setting if you would like a self-registered user's account to autodelete after a set number of days.

Warning: If this setting is enabled, the user's account will be completely removed from the Faspex database and you cannot re-activate it. Packages sent to this user will remain on the server (if configured to do so).

Permissions

Option	Description
Upload Packages	Enable to allow the user to send file packages.
Download Packages	Enable to allow the user to download packages that have been received. A user who does not have this marked will still receive packages, but will not be able to download the files.
Forward Packages	Enable to allow the user to forward received file packages to other users. The package will be made accessible to the forwarded users within their Faspex accounts.
Create packages from remote sources	Enable to allow user to create a package from a remote source such as a remote server. A user allowed to access remote sources will see a Source option when sending a new package. You must first add remote sources to Faspex. For more information on adding remote sources, see Configuring a Remote Server in Faspex. Note: This setting is disabled by default and must be set on a per-user basis (in other words, there is no global option).
Allow inviting external senders	When enabled, external senders (those who do not have Faspex accounts) can be invited to send a package. Changing this user setting overrides the system default (set under Security).
Allow public submission URLs	A Public URL can be used by external senders to submit packages to registered Faspex users. The benefit of using a Public URL is in the time-savings, such that external senders no longer need to be individually invited to submit a package (although that functionality still exists). When a Public URL is enabled and posted to an email, instant message, website, etc., the following workflow occurs: The external sender clicks the Public URL. The sender is directed to page where he or she is asked to enter and submit an email address. A private link is automatically emailed to the sender. The sender clicks the private link and is automatically redirected to the Faspex-user package submission page. Once the package is submitted through the private link, the Faspex user receives it. Thus, when the field Allow public submission URLs is enabled (e.g. set to `Allow`), the Public URL feature is turned on for this user. If set to `Deny`, then the feature is turned off for this user. Note that changing the user setting overrides the system default (set under Security). Note: Even if the Public URL feature is enabled for registered Faspex users, they can override the feature for their own account in Preferences > Misc > Enable public URL and disabling the checkbox.
Can send to external email	Enable to allow the user to send a download link to external emails addresses (which are not Faspex users).
Can send to all Faspex users	Enable to allow the user to send packages to all Faspex users (as opposed to only being able to send packages to the user's workgroup members).
Keep user directory private	When set to Yes, prevents a Faspex user (even if they have permissions to send to all Faspex users) from being able to see the entire user directory. Changing this user setting overrides the system default (set under Security).
Allowed IP addresses for login	Specify the IP address(es) that a Faspex user can login from to view his or her account. A wildcard () can be used in this option (e.g., 192.168.10.., which allows the user to login from 192.168.10.1, 192.168.10.2, etc.). Separate multiple email addresses with commas (,).
Allowed IP addresses for download	Specify the IP address(es) that a Faspex user can login from to download packages. A wildcard () can be used in this option (e.g., 192.168.10.., which allows the user to login from 192.168.10.1, 192.168.10.2, etc.). Separate multiple email addresses with commas (,).
Allowed IP addresses for upload	Specify the IP address(es) that a Faspex user can login from to upload packages. A wildcard () can be used in this option (e.g., 192.168.10.., which allows the user to login from 192.168.10.1, 192.168.10.2, etc.). Separate multiple email addresses with commas (,).

Package Deletion

Select from the following options to specify behavior after downloading a package:

Option	Description
Override system default	Override the system default, displayed here. To update the default setting, see Configure Security Settings. If you choose override, you are prompted to select one of the following policies: Do nothing Delete files after any recipient downloads all files Delete files after all recipients download all files
Allow user to set own delete setting on a package-by-package basis	Provide the policy settings in the user's New Package screen. The user can determine the file package's expiration rule when preparing it.

Advanced Transfer Settings

By default, Faspex uses the transfer settings from the Aspera Central Server section. However, when Override default settings is checked, you can set user-specific transfer settings, which will take precedence over the server-wide settings.

Option	Description
Initial Transfer Rate	Specify the initial upload and download transfer rate. When the option Lock minimum rate and policy is checked, the user will not be able to adjust transfer policy or minimum transfer rate.
Maximum Allowed Rate	Specify the maximum upload and download transfer rate for this user.
