 Subcategories serve as a logical way of structuring your equipment. This is useful for documentation purposes, but also i.e. when subscribing to alerts in Alert Profiles. You may for instance only be interested in mail server alarms. ​ Subcategories serve as a logical way of structuring your equipment.

 +<note important>​Subcategories are to be replaced with netbox groups. The subcategories was too limiting as you could not have the same subcategory across main categories. A netbox group can be compared to a "​tag"​ of sorts, except it also may have a description. It can be used to group your equipment no matter what category or type the equipment has. These groups may be used for filtering in reports, creating alert profiles and so on.</​note>​
