# Realms
The core concept in NPIS-IAM is a Realm. A realm secures and manages security metadata for a set of users and registered clients. Users can be created within a specific realm within the Administration console. Roles (permission types) can be defined at the realm level and the admin can also set up user role mappings to assign these permissions to specific users.

## Reference instructions
Please follow the instructions below:
### The Master Realm
NPIS_IAM is preconfigured with a pre-defined realm. This initial realm is the **master realm**. It is the highest level in the hierarchy of realms. Admin accounts in this realm have permissions to view and manage any other realm created. The initial admin account, is created in the master realm. Also, the initial login to the admin console will also be via the master realm.
The master realm isn't to be used to manage the users and applications in NPIS. It is reserved to be used for super admins to create and manage the realms in NPIS. Following this security model helps prevent accidental changes and follows the tradition of permitting user accounts access to only those privileges and powers necessary for the successful completion of their current task.
<!-- It is possible to disable the master realm and define admin accounts within each individual new realm you create. Each realm has its own dedicated Admin Console that you can log into with local accounts. -->

The left drop down menu allows the admin to pick a realm they would want to manage or to create a new one.
Creating a new realm is very simple. Mouse over the top left corner drop down menu that is titled with Master. If you are logged in the master realm this drop down menu lists all the realms created. The last entry of this drop down menu is always Add Realm. Click this to add a realm.

This menu option will bring you to the `Add Realm` page. Adding a new NPIS realm requires the admin to fill a mandatory name field, checking an option enable button which straight away enables the realm, click the `Create` button. Alternatively you can import a JSON document that defines your new realm. This will be provided later in more detail in the **Export and Import** subsection.
After creating the realm you are brought back to the main Admin Console page. The current realm will now be set to the realm you just created. You can switch between managing different realms by doing a mouse over on the top left corner drop down menu.
