Groups
Groups allow administrators to easily and efficiently manage users and
devices. Since device access rights apply to anyone who is a member of the
group, administrators need only set them once for the group, instead of having
to set them for each user individually. Multiple groups can be defined to allow
some users access to specific devices while restricting other users from
accessing them.

1. Select

: ; | = , + * ? < > @ " '
2. The Description can be up to 256 Bytes
