Connectivity Matrix

The Connectivity Matrix illustrates port access between devices and interfaces.  This allows users to analyze and confirm communication between interfaces.

Each row or column header cell contains four pieces of information.

• Interface Name
• Alias
• IP Address
• Security Zone

Each cell will contain connectivity information

• Red pill: Denied – No access
• White pill: IP, TCP, UDP/Any – open access
• Green pill: Port specific access

The Connectivity Matrix is accessible from the device Info panel.
