Configuration method and device of virtual firewall

Abstract

The invention discloses a virtual firewall configuration method and device. The method comprises steps as follows: determining rule items, requiring the same configuration, of a plurality of virtual firewalls; extracting determined rule items, and performing unified configuration on the extracted rule items; and configuring other rule items of the plurality of virtual firewalls. By means of the virtual firewall configuration method and device, unified configuration is performed on the rule items, requiring the same configuration, in the plurality of virtual firewalls, therefore, configuration load for the plurality of virtual firewalls is relieved, the mismatching rate caused by artificial configuration one by one is reduced, device stability can be promoted, and unified management of users is facilitated. Besides, separate configuration is performed for other rule items of the virtual firewalls with different configuration, so that the plurality of virtual firewalls are configured integrally, and virtual firewall vulnerability brought by configuration absence is avoided.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the computer field, and in particular, relates to a virtual firewall configuration method and device. Background technique [0002] At present, physical firewalls are all configured individually, that is, log in to each firewall configuration page to perform various configurations on firewall rule items. [0003] In a cloud computing environment, virtual firewalls will be automatically created or closed according to user needs. Moreover, according to the characteristics of cloud computing, there will be a large number of virtual firewalls. If they are configured one by one, the manageability of the virtual firewalls will be reduced. In addition, the device may be unstable due to human error in operation. And it becomes unrealistic to check a large number of firewalls one by one. [0004] Aiming at the problem in the related art that the rule items of multiple virtual firewalls need to be configured, resulting in redu...

Problems solved by technology

[0005] Aiming at the problem in the related art that the rule items of multiple virtual firewalls need to be configured, resulting in reduced manageability of the virtual firewall, the present invention proposes a virtual firewall configuration method and device, which can configure the same configuration rules in the virtual firewall Items are configured uniformly, thereby reducing the configuration burden, and avoiding artificial configuration one by one, thereby improving the stability of the device
