Organizing Your Network with Groups and Devices > Configuring a Group

Configuring a Group

When you configure a group, a user with security privileges is the only one who can:

• Rename the group and record important information in the Description text box.
• Change the security specifications for the group. (See Chapter 8, Configuring Security Settings.)

To configure a group:

1. From the Network Workshop, select the group that you want to configure, right-click, and select Configure.

The Group Configuration tab appears.

2. Type the name of the group and a description in the text boxes.

The description may be especially helpful in an environment where multiple network administrators need access to special customer information. The information is displayed whenever you access its associated group. You can change or delete the description at any time.

NOTE: To perform group security functions, click the Group Security tab at the top of the Group Configuration work area. For information about group security, see Chapter 8, Configuring Security Settings.
