DLP-G48 Create Login Node Groups
Step 2 Click Login Node Group and Create Group.
Step 3 Enter a name for the group in the Create Login Group Name dialog box. Click OK.
Step 4 In the Members area, type the IP address (or node name) of a node you want to add to the group. Click 
Add. Repeat this step for each node that you want to add to the group.
Step 5 Click OK. 
The next time you log into an ONS 15454, the login node group will be available in the Additional Nodes 
list of the Login dialog box. For example, in Figure 2-2, a login node group is created that contains the 
IP addresses for Nodes 1, 4, and 5. During login, if you choose this group from the Additional Nodes 
list and Disable Network Discovery is not selected, all nodes in the figure appear. If the login group and 
Disable Network Discovery are both selected, only Nodes 1, 4, and 5 appear. You can create as many 
login node groups as you need. The groups are stored in the CTC preferences file and are not visible to 
other users.
