primary duties: protecting your network and 
efficiently managing all legitimate data streams.

WatchGuard Firebox Vclass Operating System™ (OS)

Every Firebox Vclass security appliance is 
preinstalled with the latest version of the Firebox 
Vclass Operating System–which is identified on 
the packaging by a version number. This operating 
system includes all the software resources that 
make the appliance fully functional.

WatchGuard Firebox Vclass administrative client 
applications

The WatchGuard Vcontroller (or the companion 
WatchGuard CPM client software) gives you full 
control of all the customizable operating system 
parameters, including basic system configurations, 
security policies, maintenance, and activity 
logging.

If you already have one or more operational Firebox Vclass 
appliances in your network, you can shortcut the installa-
tion and configuration process on a new factory-default 
appliance. First, export a complete configuration file from 
an operational appliance and then import it into the new 
appliance. After this is done, you can change a few key set-
tings and have a fully functional appliance in location and 
ready for use. For more information, see 

Firebox Vclass User

This manual refers to the accelerated data interfaces 
interchangeably as 

Private

Public

, and (where available) 

DMZ

 or with the standard interface numbering (0, 1, etc.): 

0 = Private, 1 = Public, 2&3 = DMZ
Where other interfaces are included (a second DMZ or High 
Availability), the corresponding interface numbering will be 
noted at that time.
