5.5 Objects
Objects store information and are referenced by other features. If you update this information
in response to changes, the ZyWALL automatically propagates the change through the
features that use the object.
The following table introduces the objects. You can also use this table when you want to delete
an object because you have to delete references to the object first.
5.5.1 User/Group
Use these screens to configure the ZyWALL’s administrator and user accounts. The ZyWALL
provides the following user types.
If you want to force users to log in to the ZyWALL before the ZyWALL routes traffic for
them, you might have to configure prerequisites first.
