Configuring and managing sites is designed to be as easy as possible. Site Administration provides a simple user interface (accessed through the Site Assets workflow) that enables business users to quickly create sites and site groups, and to modify their settings.
The Site Administration utility has two main functions:
To create a new site, you select a site category, and fill in the values of the site configuration properties.
To create a site group, you specify the sites in the group, and the resources that the sites share.
The available options in Site Administration are configured by developers or system administrators, as discussed in Configuring Multisite Support. For more information about using Site Administration to create sites and site groups, see Administrative Tools.
