You can see the available types of match objects in a drop-down list in the Match Object
Settings screen.
In the Match Object screen, you can add multiple entries to create a list of content elements to
match. All content that you provide in a match object is case-insensitive for matching purposes.
A hexadecimal representation is used to match binary content. You can use a hex editor or a
network protocol analyzer like Wireshark to obtain hex format for binary files. For more
information about these tools, see the following sections:
• “Wireshark” on page 674
• “Hex Editor” on page 676
