DR -document

[karu1971]

Dear All,

When I document what are the main firewall parameters I need to take into account?

At the event of disaster, I should be able to rebuild, using this document.


Thankx Guna

A good start would be any static routes and ARP entries you might add for manual NAT. Interface configuration. Hostname. 'router' configuration for SecurePlatform Pro.

Please note that I may have missed something. Basically, document everything you enter into the firewall manually. Fortunately, most of the complicated configuration is SmartCenter-side anyway.

I suggest that you will run and document the output of the following commands:(SPLAT)
hostname
ifconfig
netstat -rn
/etc/resolv.conf
fw ver
cplic print -x

Than i suggest to run the upgrade_export and save the output away from the firewall on a secured location. if you will run it on a regular basis you will be able to restore the firewall in case of emergency.

I also suggest to prepare a "DRP KIT" that includes firewall installation CD and a document ddescribing the steps needed for firewall recovery.... this should be done for each management and firewall module.
