OR Logical OR for Boolean expression

NOT Logical NOT for Boolean expression

The logical operators follow the standard Boolean operator precedence (NOT, AND, OR). String fields have

the following string operators that return Boolean values:

BEGINSWITH

ENDSWITH

CONTAINS

These operators can be used on the string fields:

UID BEGINSWITH "A1850502"

ASSETTAG CONTAINS "007"

String fields also have the following string operators that return substrings of the field:

LEFT(string,int)

RIGHT(string,int)

MID(string,int,int)

The substring operators can be used in the string operators that return Boolean values:

LEFT(DISPLAYNAME, 4 ) = "A185"

There is one additional string operator that returns an integer value that is the length of the string:

LEN(string)

This can be used in a Boolean expression:

LEN(DISPLAYNAME)<=10

Summary

Group specifications are created using the fields and expressions described in the previous sections. Multiple

fields and operators can be used in a single group specification. For example, a group for WINDOWS devices,

with a hostname that started with ‘FOO’ that also had Hardware Crypto Accelerator cards would be:

UID BEGINSWITH "A1850502" AND LEFT(DISPLAYNAME, 4 ) = "A185"

UID BEGINSWITH "A1850502" AND LEFT(DISPLAYNAME, 4 ) = "A185" AND LEN(UID) >= 20

UID BEGINSWITH "A1850502" AND LEFT(DISPLAYNAME, 4 ) = "A185" OR ( LEN(UID) >= 20

AND BITLOCKERPRESENT)

Examples

• Using the FQDN of the client computer to attach it to a device group can be done by keying on any

commonality amongst the desired client computers. In the example below, we have a child domain
