Create a subnet object based on an existing firewall address. The
object has the name of the firewall address and is connected by a line
to the interface associated with that address. For more information
about firewall addresses, see
Enter a name to identify the firewall address. Addresses, address
groups, and virtual IPs must have unique names to avoid confusion in
firewall policies.
Select the interface or zone to associate with this address. If the field
already displays a name, changing the setting changes the interface
or zone associated with this existing address.
If the address is currently used in a firewall policy, you can choose
only the interface selected in the policy.
Create a new firewall address and add a subnet object based on that
address to the topology diagram. The address is associated with the
interface you choose.
Enter a name to identify the firewall address. Addresses, address
groups, and virtual IPs must have unique names to avoid confusion in
firewall policies.
Select the type of address: Subnet/IP Range or FQDN.
If Type is Subnet / IP Range, enter the firewall IP address, followed by
a forward slash and then the subnet mask. Alternatively, enter IP
range start address, followed by a hyphen (-) and the IP range end
address.
If Type is FQDN, enter the fully qualified domain name.
Select the interface or zone to associate with this address.
