What is a community?
A community is a group of users, workstations, printers, and administrators that have a common characteristic. For example, a group of users, workstations, printers, and administrators, located in the same building.
The community that a user or device belongs to is determined by the tags assigned to them.
Why use Tags/Communities?
The example shown above illustrates a company distributed across several cities. The company uses tags to identify places. Although Celiveo 365 supports up to five tags, they use only three, which identify Country, State, and City. A user tagged USA, California, San Francisco, belongs to the San Francisco community. A user tagged USA, California, *, belongs to the California community, which is a superset of San Francisco and Sacramento.
