Time for action - adding a device to the Cacti tree

The final task is adding devices to your newly created tree and sub-trees. The following steps will show you how to do this:

  1. Drag-and-drop the device you have created earlier from the Available Devices box to the Site A branch. There should also be a localhost listed. This is the Cacti server.
  2. You can repeat this with any device you like, or even add specific graphs to a specific branch.
  3. Click on the Save button.
  1. If you do not want to add any more items, click the Finish Editing Tree button:

By adding your first device to your newly-created Cacti tree, you have completed all of the basic tree management tasks. As you may have noticed, adding devices or graphs to specific tree branches involves less steps than the Cacti 0.8 version.
