Watchguard V10 - Default Policies; Defining a Security Policy

CHAPTER 8: About Security Policies
178 Vcontroller
Default policies
When you first install Vcontroller, three preinstalled poli-
cies are put into effect.
PRIVATE_HTTPS
Permits incoming HTTPS traffic access to interface
0 (Private). Vcontroller uses HTTPS traffic, so this
policy allows management connections to the
private interface.
Allow_PING_FROM_PVT
Permits you to ping interface 0 (Private). This
allows you to troubleshoot your connection to the
private interface.
HOST_OUT
Permits all outgoing traffic, regardless from which
internal interface the traffic originates, access to
external networks such as the Internet.
Defining a Security Policy
The Insert Security Policy dialog box allows you to com-
bine traffic specifications and policy actions. You use this
dialog box to define all security policies regardless of type.
1 Select an entry point among the list of policies and then
click
Insert. The Insert Security Policy dialog box
appears, with the General page displayed. This page
allows you to type a name and a description for the
policy.
