Technical Tip: When CLI's append command is used, 'all' objects are not mutually exclusive in the address group

1. CLI: If the members are added to the address group using CLI's 'append' command, members are not mutually excluded even if 'all' is included.

2. GUI: When set via GUI, when adding another object while there is an 'all' object, the 'all' object will be excluded.

• The 'all' object was added to the address group in the GUI:

• When the 10.0.1.0/24 object was added, the 'all' object was automatically removed:

This behavior has been resolved in:

• v7.6.4 (available to download from the Fortinet support portal).
• v8.0.0 (scheduled to be released in March 2026).

These timelines for firmware release are estimates and may be subject to change.
