Node Group Settings

The term 'node' in Cloudhouse Guardian (Guardian) is used to represent any scannable object in your environment. Node groups are used to organize nodes according to device type, operating system, applications, and any other combination of defining criteria. The following topic describes how to access and edit a node group's settings. For more information on node groups, see Node Groups.

To access an existing node group's settings, complete the following steps:

  1. In the Guardian web application, navigate to the Monitored tab (Inventory > Monitored).

  2. In the Node Groups drop-down menu, locate the node group you want to edit. Then, click the Settings button (Settings button as shown in the Guardian user interface.) to display the following list of options:
