atmf group (membership)
This command configures a switch to be a member of one or more AMF groups. Groups
exist in three forms: Implicit Groups, Automatic Groups, and User-defined Groups.
■ Implicit Groups
« all - All nodes in the AMF
« current - The current working-set
« local - The originating node.
Note that the Implicit Groups do not appear in show group output.
■ Automatic Groups - These are defined by hardware architecture, e.g. x510, x610, x900,
x8100.
■ User-defined Groups - These enable you to define arbitrary groups of AMF members
based on your own criteria.
Each node in the AMF is automatically assigned membership to the implicit groups, and
the automatic groups that are appropriate to its node type, e.g. x610, PoE. Similarly, nodes
that are configured as masters are automatically assigned to the master group.
Use the no variant of this command to remove the membership.
Syntax atmf group <group-list>

Global Configuration
Usage You can use this command to define your own arbitrary groups of AMF members based on
your own network’s configuration requirements. Applying a node to a non existing group
will result in the group automatically being created.
Note that the master nodes are automatically assigned to be members of the pre-existing
master group.
The following example configures the switch to be members of three groups; two are
company departments, and one comprises all devices located in building_2. To avoid
having to run this command separately on each device that is to be added to these
groups, you can remotely assign all of these devices to a working-set, then use the
capabilities of the working-set to apply the atmf group (membership) command to all
members of the working set.
Parameter Description
<group-list> A list of group names. These should be entered as a comma
delimited list without spaces.
