Save any changes made to the diagram. You need to save changes
before you switch to any other page in the web-based manager.
Add a subnet object to the diagram. The subnet object is based on
the firewall address you select. The object has the name of the
firewall address and is connected by a line to the interface
associated with that address.
You can also create a new firewall address using this control, but it
must be associated with a specific interface. For more information
about firewall addresses, see “Firewall Address” on page 235.
Insert Text. Select this control and then click on the diagram where
you want to place the text object. Type the text and then click outside
the text box.
Delete. Select the object to delete and then select this control or
press the Delete key.
Customize. Select to change the colors and the thickness of lines
used in the drawing. See “Customizing the topology diagram” on
page 60.
Drag. Select this control and then drag objects in the diagram to
arrange them as needed.
Scroll. Select this control and then drag the drawing background to
move the main viewport within the drawing area. This has the same
effect as moving the main viewport rectangle in the viewport control.
Select. Select this control and then drag the mouse pointer to create
a selection rectangle. Objects in the rectangle are selected when you
release the mouse button.
Exit. Select this button to finish editing the diagram.
