Configure FQDN-based VIPs
In public cloud environments, sometimes it is necessary to map a VIP to an FQDN address.
To configure an FQDN-based VIP in the GUI:
-
Go to Policy & Objects > Virtual IPs and click Create New.
-
Enter a name for the VIP.
-
Select an interface.
-
Set Type to FQDN.
-
Set External to IP and enter the external IP address, such as 10.2.2.199.
-
Set Mapped address to an FQDN address.
-
Click OK.
In the virtual IP list, hover over the address to view more information.
To configure an FQDN-based VIP in the CLI:
config firewall vip
edit "FQDN-vip-1"
set type fqdn
set extip 10.2.2.199
set extintf "any"
set mapped-addr "destination"
next
end
