CHAPTER 1: Hardware Descriptions
12 Vclass
primary duties: protecting your network and
efficiently managing all legitimate data streams.
WatchGuard Firebox Vclass Operating System™ (OS)
Every Firebox Vclass security appliance is
preinstalled with the latest version of the Firebox
Vclass Operating System–which is identified on
the packaging by a version number. This operating
system includes all the software resources that
make the appliance fully functional.
WatchGuard Firebox Vclass administrative client
applications
The WatchGuard Vcontroller (or the companion
WatchGuard CPM client software) gives you full
control of all the customizable operating system
parameters, including basic system configurations,
security policies, maintenance, and activity
logging.
If you already have one or more operational Firebox Vclass
appliances in your network, you can shortcut the installa-
tion and configuration process on a new factory-default
appliance. First, export a complete configuration file from
an operational appliance and then import it into the new
appliance. After this is done, you can change a few key set-
tings and have a fully functional appliance in location and
ready for use. For more information, see Firebox Vclass User
Guide.
