ABSTRACT:
An event-handling system assigns multiple devices in an enterprise to a group. At least one event-handling policy is assigned to the group of devices. The event-handling policy assigned to the group is associated with each of the multiple devices in the group. A current state of each device is evaluated before the event-handling policy is applied to the device. A particular device may be assigned to two or more groups. The event-handling policy may define how the device is configured or the types of events that are provided to each device.
