The device group tree is intended for arranging devices according to their purpose, location, or any other attribute. Devices can be arranged into groups either manually (for example, to designate the location of devices within the facility's industrial structure) or automatically (based on the subnets of device IP addresses, according to the device category, or by vendor).
If a device was not added to any of the groups, this device is assigned to the top level of the group tree hierarchy. By default, devices that are automatically added to the table are not put into groups.
Only users with the Administrator role can put devices into groups.
You can find out which devices belong to groups when viewing the devices table. Paths to groups are indicated in the Group column. Device groups are also displayed on the network map. However, devices that are in these groups might not be displayed if they do not satisfy the settings for filtering objects on the network map.
