Information About Objects
Objects are reusable components for use in your configuration. They can be defined and used in ASA
configurations in the place of inline IP addresses, services, names, and so on. Objects make it easy to
maintain your configurations because you can modify an object in one place and have it be reflected in
all other places that are referencing it. Without objects you would have to modify the parameters for
every feature when required, instead of just once. For example, if a network object defines an IP address
and subnet mask, and you want to change the address, you only need to change it in the object definition,
not in every feature that refers to that IP address.
Licensing Requirements for Objects

Context Mode Guidelines
