# Creating a group for remote users | ManageEngine Endpoint Central

## Creating up a group for remote users who rarely connect to internet using VPN how to?

### Description

This document helps you to manage a group of users in a remote office who are mobile most of the time. Since these users are mobile, they do not connect to the distribution server while roaming. They use VPN and connect to the main office LAN directly.

It is difficult to manage these computers, because they do not reach the distribution server often. So in order to manage such mobile users, it is recommended to create a separate remote office with direct communication using the VPN. So that every time the remote users come online, the agents would communicate with the Endpoint Central server directly. To create a separate remote office for such users follow the steps mentioned below.

### Steps

1. Click the **Agent** tab
2. Click **Remote Offices** under **Scope of Management** view.
3. Click on **Add Remote Office option.**
4. Enter the name for Remote Office
5. Select communication type as **Direct Communication**
6. Specify the communication interval and data transfer rate.
7. Specify the type of connection as secure or normal mode.
8. Configure proxy settings if any
9. Specify the remote control settings like compression and colour quality.
10. Click **Add Computers** to add the list of remote users who need to be managed.
11. If you are sure of the name and IP address of the computers that need to be managed specify that.
12. Click **Add** to add the newly created remote office.
