Before you can apply security policies, you must first define the networks that you want to protect from malicious attacks. The first step in configuring BloxOne Infoblox Threat Defense is to set up DNS Firewall by defining your remote networks. You can identify these external networks by their IP address subnets organized into groups, providing distinct networks for application in your DNS Security Policies.

...

The External Networks page displays all the networks that you have defined. You can select a network and select Edit on the top Action bar to modify its information or select Remove to delete it. When you select a specific external network, you can also view its detailed information on the right panel of the page. Or, you can add a new external network to your configuration by clicking Create.

The ManageConfigure > Security > External Networks page displays the following information for external networks that are currently in your system:

  • NETWORK NAME: The external network name.

  • DESCRIPTION: An optional description for the external network.

  • SUBNET: The logical subdivision of an IP address. Both IPv4 and IPv6 IP addresses are supporting when configuring subnets. To avoid duplicate networks and issues with ACLs defined for the DNS Firewall, BloxOne Infoblox Threat Defense does not allow a CIDR block that spans a wide range of IPs. You can enter a valid netmask between /24 and /32. BloxOne Infoblox Threat Defense will return an error if you enter an invalid netmask. IPv4 subnets larger than /3029 and IPv6 subnets larger than /56 will be verified by the Infoblox support team prior to becoming operational. Subnets /29 - /32 will not require verification. Please allow 5 business days for support team verification. For addition information about Subnets, see External Subnets
