Abstract
Documentation:
The interface_object element is used by an interface test to define the specific interfaces(s) to be evaluated. Each object extends the standard ObjectType as definied in the oval-definitions-schema and one should refer to the ObjectType description for more information. The common set element allows complex objects to be created using filters and set logic. Again, please refer to the description of the set element in the oval-definitions-schema. An interface object consists of a single name entity that identifies which interface is being specified.
