Group commands

Group commands manage Security Access Manager groups.

A group is a set of Security Access Manager user accounts that have similar attributes. By using groups, you can use a group name in an access control list (ACL) instead of listing all users individually. When an LDAP-based user registry is used, group names are not case-sensitive.

Table 1 lists group commands.
