Creating Address Groups

As more and more address objects are added to the firewall, you can simplify managing the addresses and access policies by creating groups of addresses. Changes made to the address group are applied to each address in the group. Address groups can contain other address groups as well as address objects.

To add an address group

1. Navigate to Object > Match Objects > Addresses page.
2. Click the Address Groups tab at the top of the page.

3. On the Address Groups screen, click Add to display the Add Address Group dialog.

   

4. Create a descriptive, unique name for the group in the Name field.

5. Select the desired address objects or groups from the list and then click the right arrow. The selected items move into the list on the right. Press the Ctrl or Shift key to select multiple items.

   To remove an item from the group, select the item in the right column and click the left arrow. The selected item moves from the list on the right to the list on the left. To remove all the items from the group, click un-select all items icon.

6. Click Save.
