3.1.6. Address Book Folders
In order to help organise large numbers of entries in the address book, it is possible to create
Address Book folders. These folders are just like a folder in a computer's file system. They are
created with a given name and can then be used to contain all the IP address objects that are related
together as a group.
Using folders is simply a way for the administrator to conveniently divide up Address Book entries
and no special properties are given to entries in different folders. NetDefendOS continues to see all
entries as though they were in large table of IP address objects.
The folder concept is also used by NetDefendOS in IP rule sets, where related IP rules can be
grouped together in administrator created folders.
The all-nets IP address object is initialized to the IP address
0.0.0.0/0, thus representing all possible IP addresses. This object is
used extensively throughout the configuration.
