Abstract

See full text

Some embodiments provide a central firewall management system that can be used to manage different firewall devices from a single management interface. This management interface provides a uniform interface for defining different firewall rule sets and deploying these rules sets on different firewall devices (e.g., port-linked firewall engines, firewall service VMs, network-perimeter firewall devices, etc.). Also, this interface allows the location and/or behavior of the firewall rule sets to be dynamically modified. The management interface in some embodiments also provides controls for filtering and debugging firewall rules.
