Secure Fabric Overview

 

Secure Fabric is a collection of sites which contain network devices (switches, routers, firewalls, and other security devices), used in policy enforcement groups. When threat prevention policies are applied to policy enforcement groups, the system automatically discovers to which sites those groups belong. This is how threat prevention is aggregated across your secure fabric.

  • Add Enforcement Points—Click the Add Enforcement Points link to add Firewalls, Switches, and/or Connectors. There is a one-to-one mapping between devices with sites. If a device is mapped to a site, you cannot use the same device to map to a different site. The connector can be mapped to multiple sites. To filter by type, click the three vertical dots beside the search field and select the check box for the device type. See Creating Secure Fabric and Sites for more information.

  • Drag and Drop Enforcement Points—From the main page, you can select enforcement points and drag them to other sites to include them there. When you drag, the enforcement point is disenrolled from the current site and gets enrolled to the new site where the enforcement point is dropped.

    You can either have switches or a connector as enforcement points and not both. However, you can drag a switch and add to a site that already has a switch or SRX Series device.
