The following table provides a brief description of the default groups available. To add, update, or delete a custom defined dynamic group or a pre-configured group, you must have the Entity View and Entity Manage permissions.

By Operating System | Groups computers and network devices by operating system settings (Entity Details > System Details). |
By Subnet | Groups computers and network devices by the specific interface subnet range. The range is calculated using the subnet mask set on the System Details > Network > Network Interface details panel.)
