Creating a New Group Policy

Perform the following steps to create a new group policy.

1. Connect to the NES Administrator Console in a browser by typing https://nes_server/NES_service_name or http://nes_server/NES_service_name
   depending on the NES configuration, where:

   • nes_server is the Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN) of the NES host.
   • NES_service_name is the service mapping name for the NES web application. The default service mapping name is nes.

     For example, https://nes.cwp.company.com/nes.

     Note: The service mapping name for NES is defined during deployment. Contact the person who performed the deployment to obtain the NES service mapping name value. Record the URL of ph conkeyref="prod_names/nes"/> in Appendix—Record the CWP Variables. You will use this URL to connect to the NES Administrator Console and require it during the CWP Backend deployment.
2. On the Sign in window, type the credentials of a user that is a member of the NES Administrators group, and then click Sign In.
3. Click Policies, and then click Create New Group Policy.
   The following figure provides an example of the Group Policies pane on the Policies page.

   Figure 1. Group Policy page
   The Create Group Policy page appears with the options that are available to customize the enrollment and registration process.

   Note: If the Sign in screen appears instead of the Create Policy page, the user account that you specified is not a member of the NES Administrator group.
4. Configure the options for the group policy, and then click Save.
