Assign Front Server to Domain

To limit each domain’s accessible devices, you can assign Front Server/Front Server Group to domains.

Example: Domains A, B, and C are all created in Tenant 1.  

• Before assigning the Front Server, a domain can discover all devices within the same tenant. For example, Domain A can discover all devices in the live network. Front Server A, B1, B2, B3, Front Server Group C1, and C2 are all available to Domain A. 
• After assigning Front Server A to Domain A, Domain A can only discover Domain A’s Devices in Live Network. Only Front Server A is available to Domain A.
  

Note: One Front Server or Front Server Group can be assigned to multiple domains.

Note: Multiple Front Servers or Front Server Groups can be assigned/reassigned to one domain.
