Assign agents to specific handlers. You can assign systems individually, by group, and by subnet.
Handler assignments can specify an individual handler or a list of handlers to use. The list that you specify can be made up of individual handlers or groups of handlers.

Specify a unique name for this assignment.
Specify the agents for this assignment using one or both of the following Agent Criteria options:
Browse to a System Tree location.
Type the IP address, IP range, or subnet mask of managed systems in the Agent Subnet field.
Specify Handler Priority by deciding whether to:
Use all Agent Handlers — Agents randomly select which handler to communicate with.
Use custom handler list — When using a custom handler list, select the handler or handler group from the drop-down menu.
Note
When using a custom handler list, use + and - to add or remove more Agent Handlers (an Agent Handler can be included in more than one group). Use the drag-and-drop handle to change the priority of handlers. Priority determines which handler the agents try to communicate with first.
