Select the expression criteria then click Finish. For example, select has prefix from the drop-down menu and type ESET Endpoint Security into the blank field. This expression will recognize any application with a name that begins with ESET Endpoint Security. If you edit a template associated with an existing dynamic group, ESET PROTECT or ESET PROTECT On-Prem will automatically recognize when a new computer meets the criteria defined in a Dynamic Group template and add it to the appropriate Dynamic Group.
If this is a new template, create a dynamic group using the new template.Figure 1-5
