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. cOS Core continues to
see all entries as though they were in a large table of IP address objects.
The folder concept is also used by cOS Core in other contexts such as IP rule sets, where related
IP rules can be grouped together in administrator created folders.
As discussed previously, there will be a default folder created on initial startup called
InterfaceAddresses which contains the default address objects for the Ethernet interfaces
detected by cOS Core. However, in virtualized configurations, these addresses will be top level
address book entries.
