Clone Address Objects

Updated: July 8, 2026

Want to summarize with AI?

Clone a Cisco Multicloud Defense address object to reuse or modify its configuration and update the required policy associations.

If the desire is to use the clone in place of the original, you will need to replace all associations of the original with the clone. The associations will be in a set of one or more security policy rule set rules or reverse proxy service objects. The associations can be seen by viewing the Address Object Details.

Use the following steps to clone an existing address object:

Procedure

	1.	Navigate to Policies > Security Policies > Addresses.
	2.	Check the box next to the address object you would like to Clone.
	3.	Click Clone.
	4.	Specify and modify the parameters as desired.
	5.	Click Save when complete.
