NAT and transparent mode
In this example, VDOM-A uses NAT mode and VDOM-B uses transparent mode.
This configuration requires the following steps:
Configure VDOM-A
VDOM-A allows connections from devices on the internal network to the Internet. WAN 1 and port 1 are assigned to this VDOM.
The per-VDOM configuration for VDOM-A includes the following:
- A firewall address for the internal network
- A static route to the ISP gateway
- A security policy allowing the internal network to access the Internet
All procedures in this section require you to connect to VDOM-A, either using a global or per-VDOM administrator account.
To add the firewall addresses in the GUI:
- Go to Policy & Objects > Addresses and create a new address.
- Enter the following information:
Name
internal-network
Type
Subnet
Subnet / IP Range
192.168.10.0/24
Interface
port1
Show in Address List
enabled
To add the firewall addresses with the CLI:
config vdom
edit VDOM-A
config firewall address
edit internal-network
set associated-interface port1
set subnet 192.168.10.0 255.255.255.0
next
end
next
end
To add a default route in the GUI:
- Go to Network > Static Routes and create a new route.
- Enter the following information:
Destination
Subnet
IP address
0.0.0.0/0.0.0.0
Gateway
172.20.201.7
Interface
wan1
Distance

To add a default route with the CLI:
config vdom
edit VDOM-A
config router static
edit 0
set gateway 172.20.201.7
set device wan1
next
end
next
end
To add the security policy in the GUI:
- Connect to VDOM-A.
- Go to Policy & Objects > IPv4 Policy and create a new policy.
- Enter the following information:
Name
VDOM-A-Internet
Incoming Interface
port1
Outgoing Interface
wan1

Destination Address

To add the security policy with the CLI:
config vdom
edit VDOM-A
config firewall policy
edit 0
set name VDOM-A-Internet
set srcintf port1
set dstintf wan1
set srcaddr internal-network
set dstaddr all
set action accept
set schedule always
set service ALL
set nat enable
next
end
next
end
Configure VDOM-B
VDOM-B allows external connections to reach an internal FTP server. WAN 2 and port 2 are assigned to this VDOM.
The per-VDOM configuration for VDOM-B includes the following:
- A firewall address for the FTP server
- A static route to the ISP gateway
- A security policy allowing external traffic to reach the FTP server
All procedures in this section require you to connect to VDOM-B, either using a global or per-VDOM administrator account.
To add the firewall addresses in the GUI:
- Go to Policy & Objects > Addresses and create a new address.
- Enter the following information:
Address Name
FTP-server
Type
Subnet
Subnet / IP Range
172.25.177.42/32
Interface

enabled
To add the firewall addresses with the CLI:
config vdom
edit VDOM-B
config firewall address
edit FTP-server
set associated-interface port2
set subnet 172.25.177.42 255.255.255.255
next
end
next
end
To add a default route in the GUI:
- Go to Network > Routing Table and create a new route.
- Enter the following information:
Destination
Subnet
IP address
0.0.0.0/0.0.0.0
Gateway
172.20.10.10
To add a default route with the CLI:

edit VDOM-B
config router static
edit 0
set gateway 172.20.10.10
next
end
next
end
To add the security policy in the GUI:
- Connect to VDOM-B.
- Go to Policy & Objects > IPv4 Policy and create a new policy.
- Enter the following information:
Name
