 Once the configuration is pushed, the unchecked fields from the Global Group appears on the Subscriber
Group as static values and settings. Only fields that had the override checkbox selected in the Global Group
appear as fields that can be set at the level of the Subscriber Group. Any changes to a static field must be
made on the Global Group.
 If a Global Group has Subscriber Groups, it cannot be changed to a non-Global Group. A Global Group
without Subscriber Groups can be changed to a regular Group by updating the setting on the Groups > Basic
configuration interface. The Global Groups feature can also be used with the Master Console. For more
information about this feature, refer to “Supporting AirWave Servers with the Master Console” on page 226 .
