Network Security Management On-Premises Administration Guide

Device Groups

The Manager View | Home > Firewalls > Groups page allows you can create, update, and delete a device group. You can add a firewall to any device group, and you can add a device group under any existing device groups to create a hierarchical structure.

This page displays the device groups that are created under the Root Group. To review the configuration of a particular device group, you need to navigate to the Group View.

The devices that are not part of any device groups are listed under Unassigned Firewalls.

Multi-tenant administrators can click on the Tenant name and select any other tenant to display and manage the groups created under that tenant. You can also select All Tenants option to display and manage device groups of all the tenants in a single pane of glass.

In the table you can see the all the device groups listed. Click the caret icon next to the group name to see devices that are part of the device group.
