Group management procedures apply to on-network MC service only.
Group creation provides a dedicated MC service group to individual MC service users to enable the required communication for one or multiple MC services. This includes the normal group creation by administrators as well as user regrouping by authorized user/dispatcher.
For an MC service, group regrouping enables dispatchers or authorized users to temporarily combine several MC service groups.
