Logon Type

This field identifies whether you will be logging onto the Firewall from the same machine that the browser is running on (local) or whether you will be logging onto a firewall that is different from where the browser resides (remote). Remote requires that you enter a host name.

Note that in order to allow remote configuration on a Firewall, the local parameter in the /etc/security/rcsfile.cfg file should equal no.


Host Name

If you selected Remote logon, you need to enter the host name or the IP address of the Firewall machine you want to log on to.

Encryption

Select either SSL or none for the configuration server where the Firewall resides. You need to know the encryption for the configuration server set at installation time.

User Name (Logon)

Enter your User Name. Your User Name must have administration status in order to log onto the Firewall Configuration Client. These User Names are defined via the User Administration function.

Port Number

Enter the port number of the server where the Firewall resides. The default is 1014.

OK (Logon)

Click OK to submit your Logon field values.

Cancel (Logon)

Click "Cancel" to close the Logon window without submitting any Logon commands.
