You can define network addresses, subnets, or ranges to use in rules and groups, or define networks as trusted.

Before you begin

Make sure that the interface mode for the Trellix Endpoint Security (ENS) Client is set to Full access or log on to the Trellix Endpoint Security (ENS) Client as administrator.

    Steps

    Define a network.

    Click Add and enter the details for the trusted network.

    From the drop-down list:

    • Select Yes to define the network as trusted.

      Firewall allows all traffic to and from trusted networks.

    • Select No to define the network for use in rules and groups. You can use networks defined as not trusted for the local or remote network criteria in a rule or group.

      Defining a network as not trusted adds those networks as exceptions to Trellix GTI rules in Firewall and excludes those networks from a Trellix GTI lookup.

    Change a network definition.

    For each column, double-click the item and enter the new information.

    Delete a network.

    Select a row, then click Delete.
