view more columns by right-clicking the column headers.
You can also select an entire group instead of individual devices, by changing the selection method to
Groups. Tasks (for example configurations and more) can be performed on a single group or a group
and all of its subgroups.
NOTE: Including all subgroups can potentially take much longer and cause much more network traffic,
so it should be used only when appropriate.
If you schedule a task using a group, the task will apply to the devices in the group at the time the task
starts. This makes it easy to redefine the devices used in regularly scheduled tasks without having to
delete and create a scheduled task.
NOTE: The columns displayed on the Select devices page are defined in View > Preferences > Device
Identification.
