# PGD Replication Group Node Dialog

Use the Replication Group Node dialog to view a PGD group/sub-group. A PGD cluster’s nodes are gathered in groups. A group can also contain zero or more subgroups. Subgroups can be used to represent data centers or locations allowing commit scopes to refer to nodes in a particular region as a whole.

The dialog organizes the information through the following tabs: General

- The ID field is the ID of the node group.

- The Name field is the name of the node group.

- The Location field is the name of the location associated with the node group.

- The Type field is the type of the node group, one of “global”, “data”, “shard” or “subscriber-only”.

- The Streaming Mode field is the transaction streaming setting of the node group, one of “off”, “file”, “writer”, “auto” or “default”

- The Enable Proxy Routing? field tells whether the node group allows routing from pgd-proxy.

- The Enable Raft? field tells whether the node group allows Raft Consensus.
