Creating device groups
Use this task to create groups and add devices to a group.
If your account contains a lot of devices, you can organize them into groups to manage them more
easily. Assign devices to groups based on type, business function, geographic location, or any criteria
that is meaningful to you. Groups can be used to drive audit schedules, alerting, remediation
activities, and reporting.
To place all devices that meet specific criteria into a group, click the Use
Wizard button at the bottom of the Add Device Group page.
