Product group overview
Once devices display in the Network Object view, you can associate the devices with a group.
Product groups allow you to monitor and manage multiple devices at one time. Once configured
you can use product groups to perform the following:
Deploy common configurations to all devices in a group
Implement common monitoring facilities for all devices in a group.
Identify which MPLS configured devices can be managed by MPLS.
The Management application provides pre-defined System Groups and allows you to create
user-defined groups.
System Groups — Groups pre-defined by the Management application. Discovered devices
automatically display in these groups. You can see all system groups; however, under each
group, you can only see devices that belong to your area of responsibility (AOR). The system
groups include the following:
- Fixed Configuration Products
- Layer 2 Switch Products
- Other Products
- Wireless Standalone APs
- All IP Products
- Load Balancer Products
- Wireless Controllers
- IP Wired Products
- Chassis Products
- Router Products
