Access Manager Agent - Groups page

The groups page provides the ability to create and manage AMS groups. AMS groups are stored in the Access Manager database, and can contain devices that are registered with AMS. Groups can then be used in authorization rules, and for the application of password policies.

The following groups are built-in, and their membership is automatically manged by the system;

Group name	Description
All devices	All devices registered with this AMS server
AMS devices	Devices registered using a registration key
Microsoft Entra devices	Devices registered using Azure authentication
All Windows devices	All devices running a Windows operating system
All Linux devices	All devices running a Linux operating system
All macOS devices	All devices running a macOS operating system
AMS Windows devices	Devices running a Windows operating system that were registered using a registration key
AMS Linux devices	Devices running a Linux operating system that were registered using a registration key
AMS macOS devices	Devices running a macOS operating system that were registered using a registration key
Microsoft Entra Windows devices	Devices running a Windows operating system that were registered using Microsoft Entra authentication

Note, built in groups cannot be edited or deleted.

Adding a group

You can use the Add button to add a new custom group. You must give the group a unique name, and then use the group membership selector to add devices to the group.

Deleting a group

Deleting a group removes it permanently from the directory. You must ensure that you unassign the group from any registration keys and password policies before you delete it.
