Where the Information is Stored

address, meaning outgoing source IP addresses are
translated into the IP address of the box’s external
interface. This prevents outsiders from “seeing”
your private internal IP addresses. Incoming
packets are translated from the external interface's
IP address into the appropriate private IP address.
Static NAT (except the V10 model)
Also called port forwarding. Assigns a port specific
to a given service (such as port 80 for HTTP) to
another port internally, so that originators of
incoming traffic never know which host is actually
receiving the packets.
Multi-tenant domains (except the V10 model)
Manages traffic routed to and from both kinds of
multiple-tenant virtual domains: user domains and
VLANs.
Where the Information is Stored
When you use Vcontroller to connect to a Firebox Vclass
appliance, Vcontroller accesses a specialized database
stored in the Firebox Vclass appliance. This storage capac-
ity is an integral part of the appliance hardware. All your
configuration and policy entries are stored in this database.
Certain files, such as backup configuration files, log files,
and archive files, can be stored in a location of your choos-
ing, such as the Management Station hard drive or a syslog
server.
Changes or additions to the configuration settings in Vcon-
troller reside on the Management Station and are not auto-
matically applied to the appliance.
