Security Cloud Control Firewall Management labels and filtering

A label is a grouping mechanism that

  • groups devices or objects for organizational purposes

  • can be applied to one or more devices during onboarding or any time after onboarding

  • enables filtering of device table or objects table contents using the corresponding label, and

  • allows creation of label groups using the syntax group name:label.

Label application and filtering information

You can apply labels to objects after creating them. Once you apply labels to devices and objects, you can filter the contents of the device table or objects table using the corresponding label.

Note

A label that is applied to a device is not extended to its associated objects, and a label applied to a shared object is not extended to its associated objects.

You can create a label group by using the syntax group name:label, for example, Region:East or Region:West. If you create these two labels, the group label would be Region and you could choose from East or West in that group.
