This section provides the purpose, elements, and actions performed on the Distributed Cloud Firewall pages.

Purpose

The Policies page creates and manages distributed firewall policies for securing traffic across the multicloud environments.

Elements

+ Rule button: Starts the workflow to create a new firewall rule.
Manage Rulesets: Opens the dialog to create, edit, or manage rulesets (groupings of rules). Create rulesets before adding rules to them (Controller 8.0 or later).
Actions button: Provides options to Reset Traffic Count, Turn On Enforcement, Turn Off Enforcement, Turn On Logging, and Turn Off Logging.
Policy Table: Displays the rule names and their details.
Edit button: Modifies an existing firewall rule in the table.
Move button: Changes the priority order of the firewall rules.
Delete button: Removes an existing firewall rule from the table.

Actions

Configure Rulesets

View Ruleset

Each ruleset is a grouping of DCF rules with a priority that determines evaluation order.To view rulesets and the rules within a ruleset:

Go to Security > Distributed Cloud Firewall > Policies.
The Policies page appears with the Ruleset dropdown and the Policy Table.
Select a ruleset from the Ruleset dropdown.
The Policy table shows the rules in that ruleset.
Optionally, use Search or Filter to find a rule within the ruleset.

Note: Save changes for the current ruleset before switching to another.

Requires Controller version 8.0 or later.

Manage Rulesets

Use Manage Rulesets on the Policies page to:

View all rulesets and their order
Create rulesets
Edit placement and names
Change ruleset priority
Reset traffic counts for selected rulesets
Commit draft changes

Note: DCF rulesets require Controller version 8.0 or later.

To manage rulesets:

Go to Security > Distributed Cloud Firewall > Policies.
Click Manage Rulesets.
The Manage Rulesets dialog appears.
Click the edit icon to edit the ruleset change the name and placement of the ruleset.
Click the move icon to change the ruleset priority.
Click the reset icon to reset the traffic counts for the selected rulesets.
Click Save.
Repeat steps 3–6 to create additional rulesets if needed.
Click Commit to commit the saved changes.
Click Close.

Create a DCF Ruleset

Create a ruleset before adding rules to it. You must use Controller version 8.0 or later to use DCF rulesets.To create a ruleset:

Go to Security > Distributed Cloud Firewall > Policies.
Click Manage Rulesets.
The Manage Rulesets dialog appears.
Click + Ruleset.
The Create Ruleset dialog appears.
Configure Name, Place Ruleset, and Existing Ruleset (if applicable).
Refer to the Parameter Details table.
Click Save.
Repeat steps 3–5 to create additional rulesets if needed.
Click Close.
On the Policies tab, select a ruleset from the Ruleset dropdown to add rules to it.

The new ruleset appears in the Ruleset dropdown. You can then add rules to the ruleset.

Parameter Details

CoPilot Parameter Name	Description
Name	Enter a display name for the ruleset.
Place Ruleset	Select Above, Below, Top, Bottom, or Priority to position the new ruleset relative to existing rulesets.
Existing Ruleset	When you choose Above or Below, select the existing ruleset that determines where the new ruleset is inserted.
Priority	When you choose Priority, enter a priority number for the new ruleset. If another ruleset already uses that number, it is moved down in the list. Zero (0) is the highest priority. You can change priority later from the ruleset list.

Manage Firewall Rules

Create Firewall Rule

To create a distributed firewall rule:

Go to Security > Distributed Cloud Firewall > Policies.
Click + Rule.
Configure the rule parameters. Refer to the Parameter Details table.
Save the rule.

The new rule appears in the Policy Table.

Parameter Details

CoPilot Parameter Name	Description
Name	Distributed Cloud Firewall rule name.
Source Groups	The groups (SmartGroup, ExternalGroup, Threat Feed, Country) that originate traffic. You must create the SmartGroups and ExternalGroups before creating a DCF rule. Note: You must include at least one SmartGroup. You cannot have an ExternalGroup as both a source and a destination.
Destination Groups	The groups (SmartGroup, ExternalGroup, Threat Feed, Country) that terminate traffic. You must create the SmartGroups and ExternalGroups before creating a DCF rule. Note: You must include at least one SmartGroup. You cannot have an ExternalGroup as both a source and a destination. If you are using Distributed Cloud Firewall rules for egress purposes, you must: Select Public Internet as the Destination SmartGroup. Enable SNAT on the Spoke Gateways that enforce the egress policy. The Destination Group must be Public Internet if all of the following are true: You are creating a new rule. The Destination Group has not already been modified. At least one WebGroup has been selected.
WebGroups	Select the WebGroups that filter egress traffic. You must create these groups before creating a DCF rule.
Protocol	Select TCP, UDP, ICMP, or Any. If you select TCP or UDP you can enter a port number or port range. Note: If a WebGroup is included in the rule, a warning displays if any non-standard ports are selected for TCP or UDP. Non-standard ports are those that are not commonly used for the selected protocol, such as port 80 for HTTP or port 443 for HTTPS. The ICMP protocol is unavailable if a WebGroup is selected, because WebGroups are only supported for TLS traffic. If UDP or ICMP is selected, Ensure TLS and TLS Decryption toggles are unavailable.
Port	Enter a port numbers or port range for the protocol.
Enforcement	If this slider is On, the rule is enforced in the data plane. If this slider is Off, packets are only watched so you can observe whether traffic impacted by this rule causes issues (such as drops). After the rule is created you can enable or disable enforcement from the ⋮ (vertical ellipsis) menu next to the rule.
Log	At Start: Logs when the session starts, only the initial connection metadata is logged. At Start & End: Logs both metadata and session statistics (session end time, packets received/transmitted, bytes received/transmitted, and so on). At End: Log when the session ends, a single log is created that contains full session statistics (session end time, packets received/transmitted, bytes received/transmitted, and so on). Off: Disables logging. Note: Aviatrix recommends not logging Permit rules.
Rule Behavior
Action	Select Permit or Deny. This determines the action applied to matching traffic.
SG Orchestration	On: The rule is available for Security Group Orchestration. The SG Orchestration toggle is Off for new rules when any of the following are true: A WebGroup is present in the rule. Source Group is Anywhere and action is Permit. Source Group is Anywhere, Destination Group is Anywhere, and action is Deny.
Ensure TLS	Turn On if you want traffic that matches the ports and Source and Destination Groups but that is not TLS to be denied. Traffic is denied (dropped) even if HTTP traffic matches domains or URLs in WebGroups.
TLS Decryption	Turn On to enable TLS decryption. Important: TLS Decryption must be enabled if a URL-based WebGroup is selected. TLS decryption intercepts encrypted HTTPS traffic, decrypts it for inspection, then re-encrypts it toward the destination.
Intrusion Analysis	When Intrusion Detection is enabled, traffic is inspected for threats and results appear on Detected Intrusions. When Intrusion Detection and TLS Decryption are both enabled, the TLS stream is temporarily decrypted and inspected for intrusions. Note: Download the Aviatrix CA certificate (Controller 7.0) or upload your own certificate (Controller 7.1 or later) before creating a policy that uses IDS or TLS Decryption.
TLS Profile	Select the TLS profile to use for the rule.
Rule Priority
Place Rule	Select Above, Below, Top, Bottom, or Priority.
Existing Rule	If you select Above or Below for Place Rule, select the existing rule whose position is affected by the new rule.
Priority Number	If you selected Priority for Place Rule, enter a priority number for the new rule. If another rule already has that priority, it moves down in the list. Zero (0) is the highest priority number. You can change rule priority after creation using the arrow icon next to the rule in the Rule table.

Edit Firewall Rule

To edit an existing firewall rule:

Go to Security > Distributed Cloud Firewall > Policies.
