Converged Network Anaylyzer template

The converged network analyzer (CNA) template is a set of firewall rules that can be configured to allow CNA traffic to travel through the network when the security gateway is setup as a firewall device. Typically, the security gateway will not allow CNA traffic to travel through the device, however; when the CNA template is configured and added to existing firewall rules CNA traffic is allowed.
