CHAPTER 4

Firebox Basics

This chapter describes the following tasks, which require direct interaction between
the Management Station and the Firebox:

• Set up a Firebox

• Open and save a configuration file to a local hard disk or the Firebox

• Reset Firebox passphrases

• Set the Firebox time zone

• Reinitialize a misconfigured Firebox

• Manage the flash memory of the Firebox

What is a Firebox?

Fireboxes are specially designed and optimized machines. They are small, efficient,
and reliable.

There are no user-serviceable parts within the Firebox. If a user

opens a Firebox case, it voids the limited hardware warranty.
