Creating Interface Groups

After Discovery, you can organize all interfaces discovered on the network into collections of named groups. Similar to device groups, interface groups can be used to organize interfaces for results analysis, troubleshooting or to manage interface data collection. Interface group membership is determined periodically and stored in the database. Interface Groups have considerably narrower use in NetMRI compared to Device Groups.

NetMRI ships with a set of common-sense default interface groups that automatically organize common interfaces, such as switched Ethernet ports, VLANs and Ethernet trunk interfaces. Interface groups can be modified or copied, pasted and edited to create new ones, or you can create entirely new groups (provided you have admin rights to do so).
