OK, I see. If I were you, I'd be inclined push back. If I need to log into a specific server in the server group, I use the User tool. For other normal work, I use the normal mid-tier that everyone else uses which is just configured for the server group alias. If the only specific server they want to log into is the admin server, another option might be to stand up a separate mid-tier instance that is configured to only hit the admin server, then only publish that URL to people who should be allowed to use it. That way, you don't need to introduce customizations due to people wanting to connect to a specific server.

But there are admins who want to log onto the admin server in the server group directly and when they check the CI Viewer, it comes up; with the message that the server is not included in the list of servers. If I want to get rid of this error message, the only option is to include the admin server detail in the Mid-Tier config.

Normally, if you have the server group behind a load balancer, you only need to have the mid-tier point to the load balancer and let it redirect traffic to the 3 backend servers.

When I add all three servers + the server group and I login to access the applications, on the Home Page, I see all applications links appearing 4 times, once for each server. How do i avoid this? I was told this has been discussed in the ARS List earlier and I cant access the list from my work network. We are running ARS 7.1 p6. Can someone point me in the right direction?
