You can create an asset group tree when working with the assets table or network map. The tree can be created in the Create group tree or Select group in tree window.
Only users with the Administrator role can create an asset group tree.
To open the Create group tree window:
Connect to the Kaspersky Industrial CyberSecurity for Networks Server through a web browser using the account credentials of a user with the Administrator role.
In the Assets section or in the Network map section, click the Configure groups button.
Any changes made in the Create group tree window are immediately applied.
To select a group, the Select group in tree window opens when adding assets to groups or when filtering by the Group column. In this window, you can also access the functions for creating the asset group tree.
To create the asset group tree, you can use the following functions:
In the Create group tree or Select group in tree window, select the parent group or the group next to the location where you want to add a new group. If the tree is empty or you want to add a group on the top level of the hierarchy, skip this step and proceed to the next one.
Depending on where you want to add the new group, do the following:
If you want to add a child group to the currently selected group, click the Add button or press the INSERT key.
If you want to add a group at the same level as the currently selected group, press ENTER.
If no group is selected in the tree and you want to add a group at the top level of the hierarchy, click the Add button or press either the INSERT or ENTER key.
In the entry field, enter the group name.
You can use letters, numerals, a space, and the following special characters: ! @ # № $ % ^ & ( ) [ ] { } ' , . - _.
The group name must meet the following requirements:
Must begin and end with any permitted character except a space.
Must contain 255 characters or less.
Must not match the name of any other group included under the same parent group (not case-sensitive).
When a group is deleted, the assets that were added to this group or its child groups are not deleted. Instead, these assets are moved to the top level of the hierarchy within the asset tree (and information about their inclusion in the group is deleted from information regarding these assets).
To delete a group from the asset group tree:
In the Create group tree or Select group in tree window, select the group that you want to delete.
Click the icon.
A window with a confirmation prompt opens.
In the prompt window, confirm deletion of the group.
The selected group and its child groups will be removed from the tree.
In the Create group tree or Select group in tree window, select the group that you want to move.
Use the arrow icons or their corresponding key combinations ALT+↓, ALT+↑, ALT+←, or ALT+→ to move the group relative to other elements of the tree. If an operation cannot be performed, the icon for the operation is not available.
In the Create group tree or Select group in tree window, enter your search query into the Search groups field. The search is initiated as you enter characters.
The asset group tree will display the groups that meet the search criteria. For groups that are child groups, their parent groups are also displayed.
The composition of groups in the asset group tree could be changed on the Server while you are working with the tree (for example, it could be changed by another user who is connected to the Server).
You can manually update the tree.
To update the asset group tree:
In the Create group tree or Select group in tree window, click the icon.
