Configuration and Management Basics
Configure the Edge to forward HTTPS connections
You must do this procedure from a computer that is connected to the Edge trusted network.
1. To connect to the System Status page, type
https:// in the browser address bar, and then the IP
address of the Firebox X Edge external interface.
The default URL is: https://192.168.111
2. Type your user name and passphrase. You must log in as the Edge administrator, or as a user with
administrative access.
3. From the navigation bar on the left side, select Firewall > Incoming.
4. From the Filter drop-down list adjacent to HTTPS, select Allow.
5. In the Host text box, type the IP address of the Edge trusted interface. The default is 192.168.111.1. 7
Scroll to the bottom of the page and click Submit.
If your ISP assigns you an address using DHCP or PPPoE, your external IP address may change from
day to day. You can set up the Firebox X Edge for Dynamic DNS so that you do not have to know the
current external IP address.
