Is the interface or node a member of the right group?

You can verify which interfaces or nodes belong to a group by selecting one of the following in the Configuration workspace:

  • Node Groups
  • Interface Groups

Follow the instructions in the help to show the members of the group. Keep in mind that an object can be a member of multiple groups, and that another group might have a lower ordering number.

Alternatively, you can see the full list of groups to which the object belongs by opening the object (interface or node) and clicking the Node Groups or Interface Groups tab. This list is alphabetical by group name and does not reflect the ordering numbers that determine which settings are applied.

If the object is not a member of a group:

  1. Retrieve the device profile for the node in the inventory view.
  2. Review the attribute mapping for the device profile under Configuration > Device Profiles.
  3. Review the attribute requirements for the node group definition.

If you have a mismatch, you can adjust the category derived in the Device Profile to force that type of device to qualify for your node group. You might need to do an Actions > Configuration Poll to update the attributes for the node so that it qualifies.
