Creating a Client Computer Group

You can create a client computer group and manually move client computers into the group. After your clients are grouped, you can manage the group instead of individual clients. For example, you can apply security associations to the group. For information on applying security associations, see Administering the Security Associations of an Entity.

Before You Begin

You must have appropriate permissions to create a client computer group. For information on permissions, see User Security Permissions and Permitted Actions by Feature.
