Groups
Device access rights apply to any member of the group. Administrators set them once for the group
instead of each user individually. Multiple groups allow some users access to specific devices while
restricting other users.
Creating Groups

2. Click Add at the bottom of the main panel to open the Group notebook with the Group tab
selected.
3. Enter the required information in the fields.
4. Users can be assigned to the group by selecting the Members tab. The Members page is discussed
on page 64. You can also assign the group's port access rights by selecting the Devices tab
(page 65).
Note: Skip this step and come back later to add more groups and assign users now.
5. Click Save when finished.
6. When the Operation Succeeded message opens, click OK.

Group list and in the main panel.

the group you just created.
