Managing System Services
The
Users & Objects
>
Services
page lists the system services configured in the system. In this page you
can add new services, edit services, and delete services.
You use service objects to easily define the different network protocols. This is usually with IP protocol and
ports (used by the TCP and UDP IP protocols).
These objects can be used to define your security policy, as well as policy based routing rules. Many service
objects are predefined with the system and cannot be deleted. Those predefined "system services"
represent the appliance's ability to perform deep inspection on those services for connectivity and security
reasons. The system services sometimes have additional configuration options.
