Adding Basic Services to Policy Manager

After you have set up IP addressing, add the following ser-
vices to Policy Manager to give your Firebox some basic
functionality.
The WatchGuard service is particularly important. If you
omit it from your configuration or misconfigure it, you will
lock yourself out of the Firebox.
1
On the Policy Manager toolbar, click the
Add Services icon (shown at right).
2 Click the plus (+) sign to the left of the
Packet Filters and Proxies folders to
expand them.
A list of pre-configured filters or proxies appears.
3 Under Packet Filters, click WatchGuard.
4
Click the Add button at the bottom of the dialog box.
5 Click OK in the Add Service dialog box.
6
Click OK to close the Properties dialog box.
7
Repeat steps 3—6 for the Ping, FTP, and Outgoing
services.
At this stage, do not change the default settings for any of
these basic services. The default settings allow all traffic
outbound and deny all traffic inbound. Later, you can go
back and modify the services in Policy Manger to best fit
your security needs.
If you need more detailed information on how to add ser-
vices, see "Adding a service" on page 117.
