What do the parameters provider_group_name and provider achieve in the GroupManager create function when creating a group?

Question

The create() function in the GroupManager module has two parameters; provide_group_name and provider.

See API Reference

What is the purpose of these parameters? I cannot find any documentation relating to their use or description.

Found more information by using the python help() function on the create() function. These relate to Portal/Enterprise groups and access via Active Directory or LDAP.
