  2. On the Network interaction map tab in the Network map section, click one of the following buttons for selecting a grouping criterion in the toolbar located in the left part of the network interaction map display area:
    • Icon in the form of a network structure of nodes. – for grouping devices by subnet.
    • Icon in the form of various device types. – for grouping devices by category.
    • Icon in the form of a manufacturer corporate mark. – for grouping devices by vendor.

    A window opens with a prompt for you to select a grouping option.

  3. To group devices by category and vendor based on address spaces, in the prompt window select the Take into account the address spaces check box.
  4. Click one of the following buttons depending on your desired result:
    • To group devices by subnets, click Group.
    • To group devices by category and vendor based on address spaces in all groups of the device group tree, click With child groups.

The application will identify the devices that match the selected grouping criterion, create groups for these devices, and place the devices into these groups.
