Where are my objects in use?

@wajdiaa

Hi,

I'm just complaining here: Why isn't it possible to see where an object is in use? I'm removing a user (could be a port or whatever) and I get the same message over and over and over again.

Isn't is possible to get a list of where this object is? I understand for 2 users and 3 firewall rules and one ssl or whatever it isn’t that much trouble, but I have over 800 users and 380+ policies. 

As far as this message goes, my interpretation is this: "Somewhere, sometime, someone is using something".

 This is a repost from a few years ago.

    Why? The object reference search is not a security feature. By no means does this impact the security of the product / customer. It is a QoL (Quality of Life) feature. Sophos still wants to improve this, but the main priority right now and in the future are security features. QoL features will be added incremental.

    Because you end up with a lot of identities which make managing the firewall security difficult.
