The page displays the total number of nodes currently belonging to the group (referred to as matching nodes) and a list of the matching nodes' names.

If you use rules to Dynamically add nodes to a node group, matching nodes are determined by facts collected during the nodes' last Puppet runs, and the matching nodes list is updated when dynamic rules are added, deleted, and edited. Because of How node group inheritance works, nodes must match the rules in ancestor node groups, as well as the rules of the current node group, in order to be appear on the matching nodes list.

If you Statically add nodes to a node group, the pinned nodes belong to the group regardless of other rules.
