In WatchGuard Cloud, you can create up to ten levels of folders to organize your devices. Each folder can contain devices, folders, or both. Folders help you to see status and summarized data for groups of devices.
For example, if you have devices at several geographic locations, you can create a folder for each location. This enables you to open the folder to see just the devices at that location, and to see summary status and aggregated reports for those devices.
