When representing hosts by an IP Range, the range indicates hosts with continuous IP
addresses in a subnet, such as
192.168.1.[2-10]
, or
192.168.1.*
to indicate the
complete range of hosts on that subnet. Valid IP Range formats include:
•
x.x.x.x-x.x.x.x, such as
192.168.110.100-192.168.110.120
•
x.x.x.[x-x], such as
192.168.110.[100-120]
•
x.x.x.*, such as
192.168.110.*
When representing hosts by a FQDN, the domain name can be a subdomain, such as
mail.example.com. A single FQDN firewall address may be used to apply a firewall policy
to multiple hosts, as in load balancing and high availability (HA) configurations. FortiGate
units automatically resolve and maintain a record of all addresses to which the FQDN
resolves. Valid FQDN formats include:
•
<host_name>.<second_level_domain_name>.<top_level_domain_name>, such as
mail.example.com
•
<host_name>.<top_level_domain_name>
Viewing the firewall address list
Firewall addresses in the list are grouped by type: IP/Netmask, FQDN, or IPv6.
FortiGate unit default configurations include the
all
address, which represents any IP
address on any network.
To view the address list, go to
Firewall > Address
.

Caution:
Be cautious if employing FQDN firewall addresses. Using a fully qualified domain
name in a firewall policy, while convenient, does present some security risks, because
policy matching then relies on a trusted DNS server. Should the DNS server be
compromised, firewall policies requiring domain name resolution may no longer function
properly.
Note:
By default, IPv6 firewall addresses can be configured only in the CLI. For information
on enabling configuration of IPv6 firewall addresses in the web-based manager, see
Create New
Add a firewall address.
If
IPv6 Support on GUI
is enabled, you can alternatively select Create Options
(the down arrow) located in the
Create New
button, then select
IPv6 Address
, to
configure an IPv6 firewall address. For more information on enabling IPv6
support, see
