Labels

Labels are textual signifiers that can be attached to most objects within the system, serving not only as a versatile tool for grouping objects or providing additional information about them but also enhancing searchability. They enable users to efficiently locate objects based on associated labels, such as identifying a switch's role within a network architecture (Core, Distribution, Access) or verifying an address's installation and validation by a technician.

This searchability feature makes labels an indispensable component for navigating the system's vast array of objects, facilitating quick access and organization.
