15.11 Network Objects
Network Objects is a method used to abstractly define a set of LAN hosts, according to one or more MAC
address, IP address, and host name. Defining such a group can assist when configuring system rules. For
example, network objects can be used when configuring the Router’s security filtering settings such as IP
address filtering, host name filtering or MAC address filtering. You can use network objects in order to apply
security rules based on host names instead of IP addresses. This may be useful, since IP addresses change from time
to time. Moreover, it is possible to define network objects according to MAC addresses, making rule application
more persistent against network configuration settings.
If you click Advanced in the top navigation menu and then select the Network Objects link, the following screen
will appear. To configure a new network object, click the New Entry link.
If you clicked New Entry in the preceding screen, the following screen will appear. Enter a name for the network
object in the Network Object Description field, and then click the New Entry link or the plus icon to create it.
