Note: Direct and Indirect Group Memberships

Groups can contain both NetIDs and other groups. This results in nested group memberships. Members of the main group are Direct members. Members of the nested groups are Indirect members.

Example:

  • Group A contains Group B and NetID xyz10 and NetID xyz22.
  • Group B contains NetID pqs660 and NetID pqs665
  • Direct members of Group A = Group B, NetID xyz10, NetID xyz22.
  • Indirect members of Group A = NetID pqs660, NetID pqs665
