Groups of devices

A device is used by a person of the household or put in a group, never both. Seven default groups cannot be deleted: Wi-Fi and network, NAS and home lab, TVs and consoles, printers, cameras, connected objects (security only by default) and guests (adult by default). Each group has a profile for the sensitive categories. Every ten minutes, a device placed by nobody goes to the default group its name, model, page title or maker points to (internal/classify); a device placed by someone is never moved again. An administrator can make groups of their own: owned by their account, they follow its profile unless given another. A machine found by the network scan can be given a place before it uses Warda. While a machine of the network (or a device not classified yet) is placed nowhere, the group it looks like (its name, model, page title or maker) is proposed next to it (Devices, Network, People, Groups), with a button that puts it there. An empty person or group offers the devices placed nowhere in a list.

The box of Warda itself (its own names, asked from the loopback) is put in the group Wi-Fi and network (within ten minutes, also after an upgrade from a version that let it be moved) and stays there, with nobody and never paused; it is shown with its address on the network rather than 127.0.0.1, and its queries are never filtered, whatever the profile of its group or of the devices placed nowhere.
