Adding a group to the folder allows you to organize endpoints according to your preferred criteria. You can nest your customized groups such that you have groups within groups.
The entire set of endpoint groups is called a forest. Each top-level node, such as the folder, is called a tree. The following rules apply to endpoint groupings:
-
An endpoint can belong to many trees, but can be a member of only one group in any given tree
-
A group can contain endpoints and other groups
-
You can or remove endpoints in a group at any time
-
You can add endpoints to groups and move endpoints from one group to another within
-
To place an endpoint in groups in other trees, you can the endpoint to the additional groups.
