The device selector lists all the current groups, both system-defined groups and
user-defined groups. The number after a group name or folder shows how many
objects are in the group (devices and other groups) or how many groups are in the
folder. Every managed device appears in one or more of the system-defined
groups, and may also appear in user-defined groups.
System-Defined Groups
There are six system-defined folders containing system-defined group s.
You cannot edit or delete a system-defined group. The system defined groups are
automatically populated using information read from the devices dur ing discovery
and inventory collection. Any changes on devices are reflected in the
system-defined groups only after the next discovery or inventory collection has
completed. The system-defined groups and folders are:
•Device Type folder—Contains groups for AAA servers, 1200 APs, 340 APs,
350 APs, 350 Bridges, Routers, and Switches.
Note 4800 APs will appear in the system folder for 350 APs.
•Location folder—Contains groups based on the locations of the devices. To
enable creation of system-defined location groups, you must con figure a
parameter on the device that identifies the device location. See Set Up
Devices, page 6-12 for information on setting location. The null location
group contains all devices that are not configured with their location
information.
•SSID folder—Contains a group for each primary radio service set ID (SSID)
configured on access points. For information on configuring the SSID, see Set
Up Devices, page6-12
•Software Version folder—Contains a group for each software version
detected on the devices.
•Subnet folder—Contains a group for each subnet configured in the n etwork.
•VLAN folder—Contains a group for each VLAN configured on the access
points.
