DN Groups are logical groupings of DNs. You can use DN Groups in network-level routing algorithms and in some types of statistics. To determine if you need to set up DN Groups, refer to your solution-specific documentation.
When you are specifying a DN Group, remember that the DNs in each DN Group must have the same telephony event model.
Note: Although a DN Group can contain DNs that belong to a number of different Switches, you can receive correct statistical information about this DN Group only if the reporting applications connect to the servers associated with those Switches.
The DN Groups list shows the DN Groups that are in your environment. It is sorted in a hierarchy by Tenants, configuration units, sites, and folders. To view objects by a particular hierarchy, select the hierarchy type in the drop-down menu above the list.
Note: DN Groups that are disabled appear grayed out in the list.
Configuration Manager respects tenancy permission settings. You can access only those objects that you have been granted permissions and privileges to access.
You can filter the contents of this list in two ways:
You can sort the items in the list by clicking a column head. Clicking a column head a second time reverses the sort order. You can add or remove columns by clicking the Select Columns button.
To select or de-select multiple objects at once, click the Select button.
To create a new DN Group object, click the New button. To view or edit details of an existing object, click on the name of the object, or click the check box beside an object and click the Edit button.
To delete one or more objects, click the check box beside the object(s) in the list and click the Delete button. You can also delete individual objects by clicking on the object and then clicking the Delete button.
Note: When you delete a DN Group, only the DN Group object itself is removed from the Configuration Database. Its member DN objects are not deleted.
Otherwise, click the More button to perform the following tasks:
Click on the name of a DN Group to view additional information about the object. You can also set options and permissions.
