# Tree Management

This section will describe **Tree** management in Cacti.

Trees in cacti are used to place graphs and devices on trees are
organized by name.

Below we can see the current trees we have setup on our cacti
server. To get to this screen click `console >> managment >> trees`.

From this page you can add or remove trees as you need

Below is how a tree is displayed in graph view.  We can see the device that
is being monitored - clicking on this device will result in seeing all
of the graph data generated for the device.

To create a new tree simply click the + on the top right hand corner and
enter a name for your tree. After the tree has been created you will
see the below page where you are able to add devices to the tree.

To add devices to the new tree simply drag an avaliable device to the
tree and it will be added to the tree
