Add user groups

User groups are logical groups created and used for practical purposes in the Management Application only. They are not in any way connected with user groups from central directory services.

By grouping users, you can specify rights for all users within a group in one go. If you have many users performing similar tasks, this can save you significant amounts of work. Make sure you add groups before you add users: you cannot add existing users to groups.

1. Expand Advanced Configuration, right-click Users, and select Add New User Group.
2. Specify a name. Names must be unique, and must not contain any of these special characters:  < >  &  '  "  \  /  :  *  ?  |  [  ]
3. Click OK.
4. Specify General access and Camera access properties. These properties will determine the rights of the group's future members.
5. Click OK.
6. Save your configuration changes by clicking Save in the yellow notification bar in the upper-right corner of the Management Application.
7. Now you can add users to the group: in the navigation pane, right-click the group you just created, and Add basic users or Add Windows users as required.
