Enterprise Superuser | Can perform the same tasks as an Enterprise Standard Admin and can also create additional users with the Enterprise Standard Admin, Enterprise MSP, and Customer Support role. |

Note: An Administrator should be thoroughly familiar with networking concepts, web applications, and requirements and procedures for the Enterprise.
Site Contact
The Site Contact is responsible for SD-WAN Edge physical installation and activation with the VMware service. The Site Contact is a non-IT person who can receive an email and perform the instructions in the email for Edge activation.
