SUMMARY
 * Requirements
 * Configure System Manager to Display Routing and Administrative Groups.



SUMMARY
An Administrative Group is a collection of Exchange objects that share a common set of permissions. A Routing Group is a convenient way to collect servers together so that they can perform common routing operations. When you install the first server of a forest, you automatically create an administrative group and a routing group. However, when you install subsequent Exchange 2000 servers, you need to specify an administrative and a routing group in which to add the server.
