Blueprint Groups

Overview

A Blueprint Group is a useful way to organize numerous Blueprints that share a common trait (e.g. device type, application type, vendor). User Groups can also be assigned permissions to access specific Blueprint Groups, and the Blueprints they contain or the features driven by Blueprint Group / Blueprint selections.
