You can change the location of nodes and groups in the device group tree by dragging objects on the network map. After being moved, nodes and groups change their location in the device group tree just as when adding devices to a group and removing devices from groups.

Only users with the Administrator role can move nodes and groups to other groups.

To move nodes and/or groups to other groups:

  1. Connect to the Kaspersky Industrial CyberSecurity for Networks Server through the web interface using the Administrator account.
  2. In the Network map section, select the relevant nodes of known devices and/or collapsed groups.

    To select multiple nodes and/or groups, do one of the following:

    • Hold down the SHIFT key and use your mouse to select a rectangular area containing the relevant objects.
    • Hold down the CTRL key and use your mouse to select the relevant objects.

    The details area appears in the right part of the web interface window. The details area shows the total number of selected nodes and groups while also showing the quantitative distribution of selected objects by type.

  3. If the selected objects belong to different types or categories of devices, you can exclude certain types of objects (for example, nodes of devices that are unknown to the application) or categories (for example, PLC). To do so, clear the check box next to the name of the category or type.
  4. Move the cursor over one of the selected objects (group or node representing a known device).
  5. Press the CTRL key and hold it down while dragging the selected objects to the relevant group (or to any place outside of groups if you want to move the selected objects to the top level of the hierarchy within the group tree).

    A window with a confirmation prompt opens.

  6. In the prompt window, confirm movement of the selected objects.
