Question

FortiManager object icon

Hi,

 

Struggling to find the answer in the documentation or google/forums search and wondered if anyone know the answer. I have a icon on an address object that I haven't seen before and wondered what does it mean?

Hi,

 

this usually means that the adress is "negated".

take a look in the Policy if the toggle on "negate Source" or "negate Destination" is enabled.

You can take a closer look on the following article:
