Managing Control Group
更新时间：2022-06-09 12:17:16
Control Groups are sets of accelerated domains that are being run through CDNetworks.
Control Groups can be assigned users, who then have access to monitoring traffic, billing, and service configuration (provided they have the appropriate privileges set on their accounts) for the accelerated domains included in the Control Group.
An accelerated domain can be part of multiple Control Groups, and a single user can be assigned to multiple Control Groups as well.
** “Predefined – Customer” Control Group**
A Control Group that is automatically created when a contract and first user is created is the “Predefined – Customer” Control Group, which includes all domains associated with the customer account. The name of this Control Group cannot be modified.
** “Predefined – Product” Control Group**
Another automatically generated Control Group is the “Predefined – Product” Control Group, which includes all the domains associated with a new contract. The value of such a group is in being able to view total traffic under the contract and reconcile that with billing statements and do planning for anticipated traffic changes or contract upgrades.
Unlike the more global “Predefined – Customer” Control Group, this Control Group’s name can be customized by a Master Account.
** User-Customized Control Group**
All other Control Groups are created by and customizable by a Master Account and can include any combination of PADs across whatever contracts are associated with the customer account, giving access to any users associated with the customer account.
