Administrators Marcos 5,394 Posted March 12, 2023 Administrators Share Posted March 12, 2023 Did you try an expression like this? Is there a reason why you don't want to move those workstations to specific static groups? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there a reason why you don't want to move those workstations to specific static groups? Hello Marcos, Thanks for replying! I have a COTs product that was installed with ESET 8. By checking the settings and configuration stage by the manufactoring team, i notice the original product is grouped in dynamic groups. Now i intend to add systems that are supposed to be connected to this ESET 8 and i intend to group those device (PC1 to PC5) into different group. Tbh, i have no clear comprehension between using dynamic or static groups. do you mind enlightening me on the differences? or should i not use dynamic group and use static group instead?

ESET Staff Romky 0 Posted March 14, 2023 ESET Staff Share Posted March 14, 2023 Hello raccoon, here's great web page to explain concept and purpose of Groups : https://help.eset.com/protect_admin/10.0/en-US/admin_groups.html?admin_groups.html Basically, Static groups are handled by user - you choose which computers goes to which static group (be aware 1 computer can be member of only one static group) Dynamic groups are handled automatically by agent based on some conditions (e.g. Windows dynamic group can have only windows computers because they fulfil the condition (win computers will appear in dynamic group automatically). Linux or Mac computers wont be displayed there because they do not fill up condition) For your case I would suggest to create Static group - e.g. "my_static_group_name" and move computers there by you .
