Add object overrides

Add or adjust object overrides so that network objects or groups can have different values assigned in specific domains or to specific devices, making configuration more flexible without modifying the base object.

Use this task when you need to assign different settings or values to the same object across multiple domains or devices—for example, when different parts of your organization require different configurations for the same network object.

For caveats when working with network objects or groups, see Networks.

Before you begin

Ensure that object overrides are allowed in your environment. See Allow object overrides.
