Adding Global Objects
The Objects pane provides a single location where you can configure, view, and modify the reusable
components that you need to implement your policy on the security appliance. For example, once you
define the hosts and networks that are covered by your security policy, you can select the host or network
to which a feature applies, instead of having to redefine it every time. This saves time and ensures
consistency and accuracy of your security policy. When you need to add or delete a host or network, you
can use the Objects pane to change it in a single place.
