5 CPE group management
A CPE group is used to manage rights assignment to users. Administrators create CPE groups and
add related CPEs to each CPE group for management. A CPE group contains CPEs and subgroups.
CPE groups are classified into level-1 groups and subgroups to facilitate management. A level-1
group functions as a root directory. The administrator can assign the management right of the
level-1 group to other users. A subgroup functions as a subdirectory. All users with management
rights to a level-1 group also have management rights to all subgroups of the level-1 group.
