CHAPTER 8
CONFIGURING MASTER ENGINES
AND
VIRTUAL LAYER 2 FIREWALLS
This chapter contains the steps needed to complete the Master Engine and Virtual Layer 2
Firewall configuration that prepares the Security Management Center for a Master Engine and
Virtual Layer 2 Firewall installation.
Very little configuration is done directly on the Master Engine. No installation or configuration
is done on the Virtual Layer 2 Firewalls. Most of the configuration is done using the
Management Client, so the engines cannot be successfully installed before defining them in
the Management Client as outlined in this chapter.
