SEPM - Can Active Directory Groups be used when setting up administrators/limited administrators instead of having to use individual AD users

We have a large organization and we are looking at the possible upgrade from SAV10 to SEP. If we move forward with SEP we could possibly have 50 to 100 different limited administrators around the world. It will be a PITA to add each one by AD username. Instead we would like to use Active Directory groups.

Is this possible?

No

its not possbile ,     you have to create each admn in SEPM even if its PINA :)
sepm just takes the blue print of your AD nothing else.
