Virtual Router - Topology
The Virtual Router Network Configuration page defines the network topology for the Virtual Router. For
an external interface, you define one or more shared external interfaces and a default gateway.
The topology definition consists of the following properties:
Interfaces: Add new interfaces, or modify or delete existing interfaces.
To add an interface, click Add. The Interface Properties window opens. Select an interface from the list
and define the IP address, net mask and other properties ("Modifying an Interface Definition" on page
63).
Routes: Add network routes between this Virtual Router, Virtual Systems, external network devices and
network addresses. Some Warp Link routes are defined automatically and cannot be modified or
deleted. You can manually add new routes as well as delete and modify non-Warp Link routes.
Add Default Route: Define the default route as an IP address or Virtual System.
Advanced Routing: Configure source-based routing ("Working with Source-Based Routing" on page
58) rules.
Virtual Router - IPS
Virtual Routers can only run the default protection profile. There are no configurable options here.
Virtual Router - Logs and Masters
The Logs and Masters page allows you define logging options for a VSX gateway. The SmartView Monitor
("Tracking Activity with SmartView Monitor" on page 69) section provides additional details for working with
logs.
Virtual Router - Advanced
The Permissions to Install page allows you to specify user groups whose members are authorized to
install policies on this Virtual Router.
