Assigning a monitoring group
The Network Security console provides an efficient way to assign a node to a
monitoring group.
Note: SuperUsers can add, assign, and rename monitoring groups;
Administrators, StandardUsers, and RestrictedUsers can choose them. See
"User groups reference"
To assign a node to a monitoring group
1
In the Network Security console, on the Devices tab, right-click any software
or appliance node.
2
Click Edit.
3
In the Monitoring Group field, choose a group from the pull-down list.
4
Click OK.
Note: Always align the assignment of a node to a monitoring group with the
view of that monitoring group. If you assign a node to a different
monitoring group than the monitoring group that defines your incident
subset, you can miss events even though the sensors detect them.
See
"Choosing monitoring groups"
Renaming a monitoring group
To rename a monitoring group, you must remove the existing group altogether
and create a new one. When you do this, the selection status of the previous
group is lost, which can result in a change of behavior between the remaining
existing groups. You must then reassign nodes to the new monitoring group.
To rename a monitoring group
1
Remove the existing monitoring group.
2
Create a new monitoring group with the new name.
3
Reassign nodes to the new monitoring group.
Note: When you rename a monitoring group, reassign nodes to the renamed
monitoring group to reestablish the preference.
