Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of network security, more specifically to an overlay network-based distributed firewall security policy configuration method and system. Background technique
[0002] Firewall (Firewall) is a device composed of software and hardware devices, which can construct a protective barrier between internal network and external network, between private network and public network. The firewall device can allow or restrict the passage of transmitted data according to the set rules. Firewalls are still an indispensable means of ensuring network security.
