Adapters available on the system are automatically assigned to the appropriate adapter object with status type multi.
These objects may be used to construct abstract rule sets, for example, to configure a rule blocking access to all avail-
able dial-up or wireless adapters.
The "logical" Microsoft Windows name, dependent on the operating system’s language version, and not the device
name is applicable for object naming.
