The rights management of the subnets should be improved, so you can change (add/remove groups/users or change the edit/readonly/delete rights) for an entry in the hierarchical tree. In the moment all rights of the underlying nets are overridden, when you change the access rights of a node in the tree. So it is nearly impossible in the moment to give more people in the organization write access to phpIPam and control which networks they can manage alone.

    Hi, I agree, but not sure how this should be done. The problem is that is someone would have permission for child subnet and not parent subnet, it would not be able to access it via subnet tree.

    My problem is to populate some changes in the tree. For example: you want to give an additional user group read or write access to a subnet and all underlying subnets without changing all the already existing access rights. In the moment the existing rights are completly overwritten with the new rights... So the GUI (and the underlying backend code) should be modified so that I can dynamically add or remove users and groups, so that each subnet has its unique access configuration. New subnets will inherit the rights of the parent subnet. An analogue function you can find in file explorers on operation system level.
