Assigning an operational rule to a user group

An operational rule can be assigned to users and user groups and to devices and device groups. In this case it can only be executed on a device if a member of the assigned user group is logged on to it. To do so, proceed as follows:

  1. Click Assign User Group .
    The Assign to User Group dialog box appears.
  2. Select the desired user group from on of the available lists.
  3. To allow the members of the user group to execute the rule on all devices to which they can log on, that is, of which they are either primary or secondary users, check the option Assign to Primary and Secondary Users (only primary if not selected).

    You have the following additional options:

    Description

    Select this radio button if the operational rule is to be assigned to the user and the device of which he is a user.
