information<br />

Creating network objects<br />

1. In the Host IP Address field, type the host IP address associated with that<br />

host. The IP address must be entered using standard dotted quad<br />

notation (for example, 1.2.3.4).<br />

2. Click Add, and then click Close.<br />

Note: A host IP address should only be specified if it cannot be derived dynamically<br />

from DNS.<br />

Configuring IP address objects<br />

When you add a new IP address, a window similar to the following<br />

appears.<br />

This window is used to define information about an IP address. Each<br />

IP address you define becomes a network object that can be used in a<br />

rule. Follow the steps below.<br />

1. In the Name field, enter a name for this object. (This field cannot be<br />

edited if you are modifying an existing IP address.) Valid values include<br />

alphanumeric characters, periods (.), dashes(-), and underscores (_), and<br />

spaces ( ). However, the first and last character <strong>of</strong> the name must be<br />

alphanumeric. The name cannot exceed 100 characters.<br />

2. [Optional] In the Description field, enter any useful information about<br />

this IP address object.<br />

3. In the IP Address field, type the value <strong>of</strong> the IP address.<br />
