CHAPTER 4 Configuring Firebox SSL VPN

Gateway Network Connections

The Firebox SSL VPN Gateway has two network adapters that can be configured to work on your net- work. The VPN Gateway Cluster > General Networking tabs in the Administration Tool are used to configure most network settings.

The following topics describe how to configure Firebox SSL VPN Gateway network connections:

•Configuring Network Information

•Configuring Firebox SSL VPN Gateway Failover

•Controlling Network Access

•Enabling Split Tunneling

•Denying Access to Groups without an ACL

Note

When you have a working configuration, it is recommended that you back up the configuration as described in “Saving and Restoring the Configuration” on page 44.

The configuration instructions throughout those topics assume the following setup:

•The Firebox SSL VPN Gateway is installed.

•The devices to which you are connecting the Firebox SSL VPN Gateway, such as a firewall or server load balancer, are already part of a working configuration. This guide does not cover the steps for configuring application or Web servers, firewalls, or a server farm with a server load balancer.

Configuring Network Information

You define the connections between the Firebox SSL VPN Gateway and your network on the Network tab.

The network adapter settings are configured on the VPN Gateway Cluster tab in the Firebox SSL VPN Gateway Administration Tool. On the VPN Gateway Cluster tab, you can configure the following:

•The General Networking tab is where the network adapters that are installed on the Firebox SSL VPN Gateway are configured

•The Name Service Providers tab is where the DNS and WINS servers are configured
