About the Addresses Page

To access this page, select Shared Services > Objects > Addresses.

An address specifies an IP address or a host name. You can create addresses that can be used across all policies. Addresses are used in firewall and NAT services and apply to the corresponding policies. If you know only the host name, you enter it into the Hostname field and use the address resolution option to resolve it to an IP address. You can also resolve an IP address to the corresponding host name.

Juniper Secure Edge manages its address book at the global level, assigning objects to devices that are required to create policies. An address book is a collection of addresses and address groups that are available in a security zone. If the device is capable of using a global address book, Juniper Secure Edge pushes address objects used in the policies to the global address book of the device.

Use this page to create, edit, clone, and delete addresses and address groups. Addresses and address groups are used in firewall and NAT services. After you create an address, you can combine it with other addresses to form an address group. Address groups are useful when you want to apply the same policy to multiple services.
