Can one use specific network names in WSM Firebox Templates?

TJB59B · May 5

I am building out some policy templates in Watchguard System Manager. Our VLAN and trusted network names are consistent, but IP ranges are all different. Is there a way to tell the template using a variable or some other method to use (for exampled) "Trusted01" rather than "All Trusted" and have it pick up the IP range defined on the device once it's applied?

You can create an "alias" can that will cover nearly any conditions that you need, including IP ranges, FQDN names, etc. Then use the alias in your policies. You can even create nested aliases like:

super_network_alias

special_IP_list_1
completely_different_list_of_IPs
those_one_or_two_special_hosts
