Assignment of a new BloxOne Endpoint takes place at the time of its installation. By default, a newendpoint is assigned to the All BloxOne Endpoints (Default) group. To override the default assignment, assign the endpoint to acustom endpoint group that must already have been created in the Cloud Services Portal beforethe endpoint is installed. For additional information on BloxOne Endpoint, see the following:
- Downloading BloxOne Endpoint
- Installing BloxOne Endpoint
- Creating BloxOne Endpoint Groups
- Configuring BloxOne Endpoint
| Note |
|---|
You cannot assign an endpoint to a custom endpoint group in the following scenarios: Scenario 1: The endpointhas a clientID associated with it.In this scenario, the endpoint will be assigned back to All BloxOne Endpoints (Default). Scenario 2: Another endpoint is currently assigned to the same custom endpoint group. In this scenario, the other endpoint will remainassigned to the group, the client ID which is associated with the endpoint groupwill remain with the otherendpoint and cannot be reassigned or transferred to the new endpoint, and the new endpoint will be assigned to the default endpoint group. |
