References

Hover over the icon under the References column to display information about the service object or group. A pop-up displays the following:

  • Referenced By

    With a list of the types of rules or policies configured on the firewall which use the service object or group, along with the number of references to it for each type. The rule or policy type is displayed as a link when available, such as for Access Rules, NAT Policies, etc. You can click the link to go to the page to see the list of specific rules or policies using the service object or group.

  • Groups (Member of)

    With a list of service groups or other types of groups that include the service object or group.

Default service groups are groups of default service objects and/or other default service groups. Clicking on the triangle to the left of the group name displays all the individual default service objects and groups included in the group. For example, the AD Directory Services default group contains several service objects and service groups as shown in AD Directory Services group details image. By grouping these multiple entries together, they can be referenced as a single service in rules and policies throughout SonicOS.
