As a cloud administrator, you create tenants and allocate resources to them in the form of iApps^® application templates. Tenants can then self-deploy the customized application templates to easily define network and application services for several devices, without requiring them to perform complicated networking procedures.

The process of providing resources for a tenant includes these tasks:

• Create a tenant - When you create a tenant, BIG-IQ^® Cloud creates a unique role for the tenant and populates it in the Role panel.
• Create a user - When you create a user account, you assign a user name and a password.
• Associate a user with a tenant's role - You associate a user with a tenant to provide that user access to pre-defined cloud resources in the form of self-service customized applications. You can associate multiple users with a single tenant for access to specific resources.
