When you connect to the FireBrick admin pages, or click on the dragon,
you will access the quick setup page. If you are not logged in then
this may show no information as you may have no access to any filters
or profiles.
The quick setup page contains a number of check boxes, which can be
changed and updated with the update quick settings button.
Profiles
Any profiles which are set to manual
mode are shown on the quick setup. The check box, if ticked, sets the
profile to Manually enabled,
otherwise the profile is set to Manually
disabled.
Filters
Any filter with quick setup
selected is show. If ticked then the filter is enabled, otherwise the
filter is suspended.
Technical Reference
Note that a suspended filter is not considered. This is not the
same as a drop filter as that
would stop checking of any later filters and drop teh traffic. A
suspended filter means that later filters are considered. As such a
filter may be unticked on the quick setup pages, but traffic of the
type specified may be allowed (by another filter).
The profiles and filters listed are only those that the logged in
user can access.
This screen also shows an startup tips, such as setting an admin
password, or logging in.
