Owners can also configure gateways, servers, remote access solutions and manage billing all through NordLayer’s Control Panel.
      • Team Administrators are responsible for adding and removing Members from a team that they’re assigned to. They can also see all virtual private gateways that are available for the team they administer.
      • Members are those that belong to a specific organization and different teams. Owners and Team Administrators can invite and delete them from the organization and teams they’re added to, as well as add or limit functionality.

      2. Click the Activate, Suspend, or Delete icon. If you wish to delete multiple members, you can do so by checking the boxes next to their names and selecting the Delete option from the Actions menu dropdown.
