Hi @bluesea2010,

Your screenshot is very trimmed, so it doesn't contain much info.

However, I believe green ones are objects related to interface networks, while blue ones are standard objects. If you try to modify green ones, you'll realize that you have no name for that object. But, if you compare them with your interfaces addressing, you'll realize that those are subnets of your connected interfaces.

BR,

Milos

Hi @Milos_Jovanovic 

what does it mean by objects related to interface networks

Is there any issue  using this  objects in an acl 

Thanks

If the interface is described with 'ip address 192.168.1.1 255.255.255.0', and nameif is ''inside, then this object will be named 'inside-network' and it will be defined as '192.168.1.0 255.255.255.0'.

Yes, you could use this object whithin your policies, although I prefer not to use anything that I didnt created myself.Once you try to add this object, you'll notice it will convert it's name to IP format.

You could also create your own object, with same content, and use that one instead.
