Addresses
What’s the Address section?
The Address is the section in Wedge that allows to define custom addresses (IPv4, IPv6, FQDN). Those addresses may be then used to define Security Policies or Address translation.
When to use it?
Block Access to the server
You have the server that you want to block access to. Define this server using the address and then create the Policy to restrict access.
Translate the address on the fly
You have an old server that will be shut down, and a second server to take over. You may redirect all traffic from Address A to Address B - define both addresses in this section and then create the Address Translation rule.
List of all objects
In the center part of the screen, you may find the list of all Addresses existing in the Ecosystem.
Using search option
The search option on this section allows searching for any addresses that exist in this Ecosystem. Searching works on any text-type value, this means that you can search by any value that describes the object.
Creating the new Address
The Address section allows creating new Address by clicking on the + Add New Address button.
Choose between IPv4, IPv6, or FQDN. Then define the address, name and choose one of the categories.
