Creating An Identity Group; Inheriting From An Identity Group To An Identity - Patton electronics SmartNode Series Software Configuration Manual

SmartWare Software Configuration Guide

Creating an identity group

Multiple identities with the same properties can be grouped in an identity-group. The identity-group can be
configured exactly in the same way and with the same parameters as an identity. An identity-group can only
inherit configurations to identities, but they never play an active role.
The special identity-group "default" inherits parameters to identities which are unknown or not configured.
Even dynamically created identities from registration inbound inherits from the identity-group "default". Con-
figured identities do not inherit from the identity-group "default" unless is it explicitly configured to do so.

Inheriting from an identity group to an identity

An identity only inherits parameters from an identity-group if the parameters are not configured in the identity
itself. Some commands allow the identity to explicitly disable some configurations that were otherwise inher-
ited.
