What term represents fixed groups of computers created for management purposes?

• A. Primary Group
• B. Static Groups
• C. Group Hierarchy
• D. Local Groups

Answer: (B)

Fixed groups created for consistent administration are called Static Groups. The defining feature is that membership is set manually by an administrator and does not change automatically, which makes it reliable for applying the same policies, monitoring, and configurations to a defined set of devices. This stability is what you want when you need to target a specific department, site, or device type with the same management actions. In contrast, Local Groups refer to groups defined on individual machines rather than centrally in the management console, Group Hierarchy describes how groups are structured rather than their fixed membership, and terms like Primary Group aren’t the standard way to describe a fixed, management-focused collection of devices.
