How Does the Device Assignment work?

In the MICA web application, there's an management page that allows to select the devices that are assigned to a particular container.
Each container has all available device available in the /dev directory. Even if they aren't selected for that container.
All devices that aren't selected are assigned to the Linux group root.
if you execute the command ld -l /dev , you'll see that all devices are there, whether they are selected in the management app or not.

Very small typo - should say "ls -l /dev" (as per your screenshot later).

This is another useful blog post, as this process does not seem to be explained anywhere in the HARTING documentation.
