Navigating the Firebox
X Edge Configuration
Pages
When you configure a WatchGuard® Firebox® X Edge, you create fire-
wall rules to apply the security rules of your company. Before you cre-
ate these rules, you must install your Firebox. To create a basic
configuration, use your web browser to connect to the web pages on
the Firebox X Edge.
You can also use the Edge configuration pages to create an account,
look at network statistics, and see the current configuration of the
Edge.
Read this chapter to find basic information about the Firebox X Edge
configuration pages. There are sections in subsequent chapters that
have more advanced procedures. This chapter contains links to subse-
quent sections.

You can see the configuration pages only if you used the Quick
Setup Wizard, as shown in Chapter 2, “Installing the Firebox X Edge”.
Also, to configure the Firebox X Edge, your network administrator
must configure your user account to see and change the
configuration pages. See Chapter 9 “Managing Users and Groups” for
more information on user accounts.
