This tab lets you configure a network resource group, which is a group of network resource devices that can be associated with an Automated service. You configure the group by selecting a network resource type (MAC or IP) and typology, and then creating a list of MAC or IP addresses for the resources that are part of the group. Once a network resource group has been defined, you can associate it with the desired Automated service (see How to Create a Service for more information).
To access this tab, select a network resource group in the left panel of the Network Resource Configuration window (available from the Policy Manager Edit menu).
