Configuring Third Party Connectivity

A third-party connectivity profile allows you to define the edges that can communicate with third-party tunnels, such as the Zscaler IPSec tunnel. For information about setting up third-party IPSec VPN tunnels, see Configuring Third Party IPSec VPN Tunnels. For details on setting up profiles that define edges that communicate among themselves within BloxOne, see Configuring Edge Connectivity.

Because a third-party connectivity profile must be associated with an edge connectivity policy, you must create such a policy and then associate it with the profile when configuring it. For details, see Configuring Edge Connectivity Policies.

On the 3rd Party Connectivity page, the Cloud Services Portal displays the following information:

  • NAME: The name of the third-party connectivity profile.
  • EDGES: The number of edges in the profile. You can view details of the edges by clicking the edge number in blue in the right panel. The Edges dialog displays information about the edges you have included in the profile.
  • POLICY: The edge connectivity policy associated with the profile.

You can do the following on the 3rd Party Connectivity page:

  • View the Edges,  Policy, and other details of a third-party connectivity profile: Select the profile and view its details in the panel on the right or by clicking .
  • Modify a profile: Click  > Edit, or select the checkbox for the profile and click the Edit button.
  • Remove a profile: Select the profile and click  > Remove or click the Remove button.
