Here you set the variable "ExpCID" to the text string "A/B/C". This means A,
B and C are not values that change, but part of a constant string.
And for the match 

>  match if AccessGroup = "Group1" and option agent.circuit-id = ExpCID;

to be true you need to be sure that the CID is equal to the text string
"A/B/C".


If A, B and C are variables that can have different values, then you need a
different "group match" statement.
