II-1-13 Objects
Vigor router system provides the object functions.
Users can define various types of objects and groups, and then apply them at various scenarios, like
Configuration>>NAT>> Port Forwarding, Security>>Firewall Filters.
The advantage is that the user doesn't have to set data repetitively and it significantly enhances
efficiency.
Currently, the objects that can be preset include IP, MAC, Schedule, Service Type, Keyword, and
groups that include IP, MAC, etc.
II-1-13-1 IP Object
For IPs in a range and service ports in a limited range usually will be applied in configuring router's
settings, therefore we can define them with objects and bind the objects with groups for using
conveniently. Later, we can select that object/group for applying it.
For example, a range of IP address in the same department can be defined with an IP object.
