Global list of subnets

This section provides information about the global list of subnets that you can use in the rules.

To store the information about subnets of your network, you can set up a global list of subnets for each Administration Server you use. This list helps you match pairs {IP address, mask} and physical units such as branch offices. You can use subnets from this list in the networking rules and settings.
