Grouping Devices
Grouping devices according to specified criteria makes it easier for administrators to manage them.
Devices can be grouped automatically according to any of their properties, or manually assigned to
groups in any way that is suitable for your requirements. Note that you can also pre-assign the group
to which a device belongs from the device itself by editing its agent configuration settings.
Manual Grouping

require.
