Why each option
In Cisco Unified Communications Manager, administrative privileges flow through Roles assigned to Access Control Groups (ACGs), not directly to individual users.
CUCM does not permit roles to be directly assigned to individual user accounts; privilege escalation must occur through Access Control Group membership.
In CUCM, users are not added to roles; roles are assigned to Access Control Groups, and users gain privileges through their ACG membership.
CUCM enforces a role-based access model where Roles - containing specific resource and privilege definitions - are assigned to Access Control Groups; assigning an ACG to a new role links those privileges to all users who are members of that ACG, which is the architecturally correct method for extending privileges. This ACG-to-role binding is the required mechanism in CUCM because the platform does not support direct role assignment to individual user accounts.
Adding a user to a new, empty Access Control Group confers no additional privileges unless that ACG already has appropriate roles assigned to it.
Concept tested: CUCM role-based access control via Access Control Groups
