Router objects
Router objects are a set of tools used by routing protocols and features.
Access list
Access lists are filters used by FortiGate routing features.
Each rule in an access list consists of a prefix (IP address and netmask), the action to
take for this prefix (permit or deny), and whether to match the prefix exactly or to
match the prefix and any more specific prefix.
The FortiGate unit attempts to match a packet against the rules in an access list
starting at the top of the list. If it finds a match for the prefix it takes the action specified
for that prefix. If no match is found the default action is deny.
For an access list to take effect it must be called by another FortiGate routing feature
such as RIP or OSPF.
