To change the relay managing the ID or the password required for registration into the ID group:

    The Change ID Group Attribute dialog box appears.

    Specify the new relay for managing the ID group or the new password. You can change only the password from the relay managing the ID. Note that the entered password characters are displayed as asterisks (*) for security purposes.
  3. After changing the relay managing the ID, click the OK button.

    A dialog box appears, requesting confirmation of the deletion.
  2. Click the OK button.
    The system deletes the selected ID group. The Destination window displays the Deleting status for the deleted ID group but the ID group is not deleted from the window. After the deletion process is completed, choose Window and then Update to delete the ID group from the window.

To delete a registered client from an ID group:

  1. In the Destination window, select the client to be deleted, choose Edit, and then choose Delete.
    A dialog box appears, requesting confirmation of the deletion.
  2. Click the OK button.

(4) Registering an ID group into a relay managing the ID

In the managing server where an ID group was created, you can register the ID group into a relay managing the ID. Because you can register multiple ID groups into a relay managing the ID in a batch operation, this feature is convenient when a new relay managing the ID is added to the system.
