Assign Nodes to Security Groups

Required only for Operator or Guest users:

When assigning nodes to Security Groups, note the following (see About Security Groups for more information):

  • When you select a row in the Security Groups table, NNMi filters the Nodes Assigned to Security Group table to display only those nodes that are assigned to the selected Security Group.
  • Your configuration changes are not saved until you click Save and Close.

Tip NNMi administrators can also use other methods to complete this task. See Methods for Assigning Nodes to Security Groups including nnmsecurity.ovpl.

To assign nodes to a Security Group:

  1. From the Security Wizard main page, select the Assign Nodes to Security Groups option.
  2. Select a row in the Security Groups table.
  3. In the Available Nodes table, do one of the following:

    1. Select a Node Group in the Node Group filter drop-down list or select a column filter to specify the nodes to be assigned to the Security Group.
    2. User Ctrl-Click to select each node you want to assign to the selected Security Group.
  4. Click to specify that you want to assign the selected nodes to the Security Group.

    The Nodes to be Assigned to Selected Group table displays the list of nodes to be assigned to the selected Security Group.

  5. Repeat steps 2 through 4 to assign nodes to a selected Security Group.
  6. When you finish, click the Save and Close button to save your security configuration.

    Note NNMi does not save any configuration changes until you click Save and Close to save your security configuration.
