Connecting the Edge to more than seven devices
Although the Firebox® X Edge has only seven numbered Ethernet
ports (labeled 0-6), you can connect more than seven devices. Use
one or more network hubs to make more connections.
The maximum number of devices that can connect to the Internet
at the same time is set by model. For example, if a Firebox X Edge
model has a 12-session license, there can be more than 12 devices
on the trusted network. But, the Edge allows only 12 Internet con-
nections at the same time.
The Edge uses a session when a trusted or optional computer makes
a connection to the external interface. That same computer can
then have more than one connection through the Firebox without
adding another session. Sessions are based on the number of com-
puters with active connections through the Firebox external inter-
face. The Edge releases the session when any of these things
happen:
• If Firebox user authentication is necessary for external network
connections, the Edge releases the session after the idle time-
out limit set for that account.
• If Firebox user authentication is necessary for external network
connections, the Edge releases the session after the maximum
time-out limit set for that account.
• If Firebox user authentication is necessary for external network
connections, the Edge releases the session when the Firebox
user manually stops the session. To stop the session, the user
closes the
Login Status box and all other browser windows.
• If the Edge administrator uses the Firebox Users page to stop a
session, the Edge releases that session.
• If the Automatic Session Termination time limit for all sessions
is reached, the Edge releases all sessions at one time.
• If the Edge restarts, all sessions are released.
