Service Objects

Protocol Objects

Protocol objects are a type of service object that contain less-commonly used or legacy protocols. Protocol objects are identified by a name and protocol number. CDO recognizes these objects in ASA and Firepower (FDM-managed device) configurations and gives them their own filter of "Protocols" so you can find them easily.

ICMP Objects

An Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) object is a service object specifically for ICMP and IPv6-ICMP messages. CDO recognizes these objects in ASA and Firepower configurations when those devices are onboarded and CDO gives them their own filter of "ICMP" so you can find the objects easily.

Using CDO, you can rename or remove ICMP objects from an ASA configuration. You can use CDO to create, update, and delete ICMP and ICMPv6 objects in a Firepower configuration.

Note

For the ICMPv6 protocol, AWS does not support choosing specific arguments. Only rules that allow all ICMPv6 messages are supported.
