Configuration Objects

The objects are grouped according to their types into the following tabs:

Depending on the selected tab, you have different action buttons at the top of the list, but you can always structure the objects into a directory structure. The structure tree shows all created directories and subdirectories with information on the contained objects. The format (x/y) specifies:

x - the number of objects contained directly in the directory and

y - the total number of objects in the directory & all subdirectories of this directory.
