For the integrated management of stations and their settings, the following tools are provided:
•Groups.
Station can be included into unlimited number of groups. Obligatory into predefined groups according to a station state and optionally into user groups. But only one of these groups is primary.
•Policies.
Only one policy or none of policies can be assigned to a station.
•Profiles.
Profiles are used to specify the settings of the Application Control component. Profiles can be assigned to stations and groups of stations and also individual users.
To control the launch of applications on stations, at least one active profile must be assigned to the station or to the station user.
Types of Station Settings
Inherited settings
When creating a new station, its settings are always inherited from a policy or a primary group. Detailed information is given in the Inheriting Stations Configuration section.
Personal settings
The inheritance can be broken during station operation. In this case, personal settings are set for the station.
To set personal settings for a station, edit the corresponding settings section.
If personal settings are specified for a station, then the settings of the assigned policy or primary group settings and their editing will not have any effect on the station settings.
You can restore the inheritance from a policy or a primary group. To do this, click the 
Remove personal settings button on the toolbar of the Control Center, in the corresponding settings section or in a station properties section.

In each settings section of workstation configuration elements, the information that settings of this section are set personally or inherited from a corresponding object is displayed.
A part of the settings sections can be set personally and a part be inherited from a policy or a primary group if the policy is not specified. |
You can set different configurations for different groups and stations, by editing corresponding settings.
