FireScreen Administration

The FireScreen menus and forms lead you through the process of installing, configuring, and enabling the FireScreen firewall. An Internet Protocol (IP) packet arriving at a gateway is routed by the system's routing daemon to the kernel for forwarding through a particular network interface. FireScreen filters routed packets by inhibiting the kernel IP forwarding functionality the based on screening rules stored in its configuration file.

Use the FireScreen Administration menu to perform the following tasks:

Install FireScreen (Section : Installing FireScreen)

Configure FireScreen (Section : Configuring FireScreen)

Start and stop FireScreen (Section : Starting and Stopping FireScreen)

View FireScreen status (Section : Viewing FireScreen Status)

Under Network Security on the Manage Components menu, choose FireScreen to access the FireScreen Administration menu, shown in Figure 43.

Note:

Initially, the FireScreen Administration menu displays only one option, Install FireScreen. After installing FireScreen, the additional options shown in Figure 43 are displayed.
