Configuring Distribution Collections
You can configure Distribution Collections for device and/or user groups by using Server Administrator > Devices or Groups.
For a device group
You can set specific device groups to display particular distribution collections for non-authenticated users when they access the Public Distribution button.

-
In the Devices node, right-click the device to which you want to assign a Distribution Collection and select Properties. The Device Group Properties screen appears.

In the Buttons tab, select Public Distributions and click the Properties button. The Button Properties screen appears.
