Administrators can enforce legal disclaimers, acceptable use policies, and compliance consent workflows on the HPE Networking SSE User Portal.

When enabled, users must review and acknowledge the organization's Terms and Conditions (T&C) before authenticating to private applications.

Functional Overview

Enabling Terms and Conditions ensures users acknowledge organizational policies before accessing the Atmos User Portal.

• Mandatory consent: Access is blocked until the user accepts the terms on the login screen.
• Markdown support: Format text and embed clickable links to external policies using CommonMark syntax.
• Automatic re-prompting: Updating published terms requires all users to re-accept them on their next login.
• Centralized control: Configure and preview terms globally under Settings > Customization.

Prerequisites

• Administrator credentials with write access to tenant settings.
