Creating a Service Container for Devices

  1. Navigate to Administration > Containers > Create a Service Container. A middle Container Configuration panel displays.
  2. Enter Servers in the field at the top of the Container Configuration panel.
  3. Select the Contains: Devices & Containers option.
  4. You can assign devices to a container either by performing a search in the right hand panel and manually selecting the devices to include, or by specifying rules and having the results automatically assigned to the container.

Click Apply to see which devices match this rule. You can add additional rules, such as entering *win* in the Device Name field to filter the list of devices found even further.
