Home Assistant supports both _classic inclusion_ and _SmartStart_. _Classic inclusion_ means you set both the hub and the device to be included into the corresponding mode. The alternative is _SmartStart_, where the hub is constantly listening for inclusion requests from devices that want to join the network.
#### Association group
An _association_ in Z-Wave terminology is when two or more Z-Wave products communicate directly. This enables devices to communicate with each other without the need to communicate via a hub, or to send unsolicited reports to the central hub.
An _association group_ in Z-Wave terminology is a group of devices that another one will send commands to in certain situations. Association groups and their functionality are specific to the device that sends the commands. Refer to the device manual for details.

A Z-Wave controller that manages an empty network can also join a different network and act as a secondary controller there. However, with Home Assistant, this is not possible. Home Assistant does not allow the Z-Wave controller to join another network, because Home Assistant acts as the central hub.
## Z-Wave association groups used
In Home Assistant, a single [association group](#association-group) is supported:
- **Group 1**: This is an association group that includes only one device. It is used after a [factory reset](#controller), to send a **Device Reset Locally Notification**.
This association group is used when Home Assistant [resets the Z-Wave controller](#controller).
Under normal circumstances, it is not necessary to add a device to this group.
