CHAPTER 5 Using Policy Manager to
Configure Your Network
Normally, you incorporate the Firebox into your network when you run
the QuickSetup Wizard, as described in “Running the QuickSetup
Wizard” on page 35. However, you can also create a basic configuration
file from scratch using several functions in Policy Manager.
Each of the procedures in this section can also be used to override any
settings you made using the QuickSetup Wizard. It is recommended that
you follow these steps in the following order to make sure that all
necessary information is provided (although not all steps are required in
all installations).
• Starting a New Configuration File
• Setting up Firebox interfaces
• Adding secondary networks
• Setting up DNS and WINS servers
• Setting up the Firebox as a DHCP server
• Adding the four basic services to Policy Manager
•Configuring routes
