The Groups
When a firewall is installed in a business network the configuration process takes time because
users each have different configurations, with specific requirements for accessing the Internet.
The Authonet firewall simplifies the configuration process with the concept of groups, where
users (devices) and rules are assigned to each group. Many groups can be created.
