Managing devices
This section describes how to perform a routine device management task by using the management console. To locate the
inventory of the devices, click the Devices tab. You can view a subset of the devices by using various filter criteria, such as
groups or subgroups, device type, operating system type, status, subnet, platform, or time zone.
To view the Device Details page of a particular device, click the device entry listed on the page. All the configuration
parameters of the device and the group level at which each parameter is applied are displayed on the Device Details page.
You can set the configuration parameter that is specific to the device. Parameters configured in this section override any
parameters that were configured at the groups and/or at the global level.
