Chapter 9      Setting Up Virtual Routers
  Configuring Routed Interfaces
The Edit Interface pop-up window appears.
Step 4
Click 
Routed 
to display the routed interface options.
Step 5
Optionally, from the 
Security Zone
 drop-down list, select an existing security zone or select 
New
 to add a 
new security zone.
Step 6
Optionally, from the 
Virtual Router
 drop-down list, select an existing virtual router or select 
New
 to add a 
new virtual router.
Note that if you add a new virtual router, you must configure it on the Virtual Routers tab of the Device 
Management page (
Devices > Device Management > Virtual Routers
) after you set up the routed interface. See 
Step 7
Select the 
Enabled
 check box to allow the routed interface to handle traffic.
If you clear the check box, the interface becomes disabled so that users cannot access it for security 
purposes.
Step 8
From the 
Mode
 drop-down list, select an option to designate the link mode or select 
Autonegotiation
 to 
specify that the interface is configured to auto negotiate speed and duplex settings. Note that mode 
settings are available only for copper interfaces.
Note
Interfaces on 8000 Series appliances do not support half-duplex options.
Step 9
From the 
MDI/MDIX
 drop-down list, select an option to designate whether the interface is configured for 
MDI (medium dependent interface), MDIX (medium dependent interface crossover), or Auto-MDIX. 
Note that MDI/MDIX settings are available only for copper interfaces.
Normally, MDI/MDIX is set to Auto-MDIX, which automatically handles switching between MDI and 
MDIX to attain link.
Step 10
In the 
MTU
 field, type a maximum transmission unit (MTU), which designates the largest size packet 
allowed. Note that the MTU is the Layer 2 MTU/MRU and not the Layer 3 MTU.
The range within which you can set the MTU can vary depending on the FireSIGHT System device 
model and interface type. See 
 for more information.
Step 11
Next to 
ICMP
, select the 
Enable Responses
 check box to allow the interface to respond to ICMP traffic such 
as pings and traceroute.
Step 12
Next to 
IPv6 NDP
, select the 
Enable Router Advertisement
 check box to enable the interface to broadcast 
router advertisements.
Step 13
To add an IP address, click 
Add
.
The Add IP Address pop-up window appears.
Step 14
In the 
Address
 field, type the routed interface’s IP address and subnet mask using CIDR notation. Note 
the following:
  •
You cannot add network and broadcast addresses, or the static MAC addresses 00:00:00:00:00:00 
and FF:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF.
  •
You cannot add identical IP addresses, regardless of subnet mask, to interfaces in virtual routers.
Step 15
Optionally, if your organization uses IPv6 addresses, next to the 
IPv6
 field, select the 
Address 
Autoconfiguration
 check box to set the IP address of the interface automatically.
Step 16
For 
Type
, select either Normal or SFRP. 
For SFRP options, see 
 for more information.
Step 17
Click 
OK
.
