> Network Group Events View
> Directory Proxy Server network groups describe how to identify an LDAP client, and the restrictions to enforce for clients that match that group. Clients are initially identified into a group based on the network address from which they connect. They may change their group after a successful bind.

> Network groups are tested in the descending order of priority, specified by their placement in the Network Group window. In this window, groups on the bottom of the list have less priority than those towards the top. If no groups are found to match a client, the client's request will be rejected. There must be at least one group entry in the configuration specification.

> Clients are identified to belong to this network group based on their IP address and/or domain name.

> Use this view to specify a group name, whether a group is part of a configuration or not, and which events you want to associate with a group.

> Group name. Enter the group name that specifies the name of the group. This value must be unique within the set of groups. This value must be present as it forms the RDN of entries of this class.

> Enable. By default, this option is selected for you. Deselect it to disable a group in a configuration. For a group to be part of Directory Proxy Server configuration, this option must be selected.

> Event definitions. Select an On Bind Event and/or an On SSL Event, if any, to include in a group. An included event can be evaluated upon completion of predetermined processes and actions can be taken on the outcome of the evaluation.

> For example, an On Bind Event is evaluated on the successful completion of a bind operation. If the event evaluates to true then a client may be able to change its group.

> On bind. Select the name of an On Bind Event that will be performed when a client successfully completes a bind operation.

> On SSL. Select the name of an On SSL Event that will be performed when a client successfully establishes an SSL session.

> Edit... Displays a dialog box for editing the behavior of an event.

> New... Displays a dialog box for creating a new event.
