46.2 Configuring Network Objects
Network Objects is a method used to logically define a set of LAN hosts according to
specific criteria such as MAC address, IP address, or host name. Defining such a group
can assist when configuring system rules. For example, network objects can be used when
configuring security filtering such as IP address, host name, or MAC address filtering. You
can use network objects to apply security rules based on host names instead of IP
addresses. This may be useful, since IP addresses change from time to time. It is also
possible to define network objects according to MAC addresses, making rule application
more persistent against network configuration settings. Moreover, the device supports
DHCP Options 60, 61, and 77. DHCP Option 60 enables application of security and QoS
rules on a network object according to its unique vendor class ID. For example, a vendor's
IP telephone can be identified and applied with specific QoS priority rules.
To define a network object:
1. Click the Network Objects item (Configuration tab > Data menu > Objects and
Rules submenu > Network Objects); the following page appears:
Figure 46-4: Configuring Network Objects
2. Click the New Entry link; the following page appears:
Figure 46-5: Defining Name for Network Object
3. In the 'Description' field, enter a name for the network object.
