NCM: Multi-level node grouping

I was wondering if the grouping capability of NPM has been brought into NCM yet. I currently have eval version 6.0SP1 to demo to my manager and peers, however, I know they will ask about being able to have multi-level groups.

Example:

Device Type (Core, Access, Wireless, etc)
- Building ID (East, West, etc)

The server and web versions of ncm support different functionality.

This is the web front end which allows one grouping. As in my orgainzations case we use an additional field we added called Property, which is not included in the base product. It is not as much as I would have liked to implement but sufficient for our needs.

As far as I have been able to confirm with Solarwinds there is no mechnaism in the works to limit which AD users are able to see and review devices. So all authenticated users may see all devices and their configs. This limits our ability to more widely deploy the application.
