Organize firewalls by customer
Say your customers include Coke and Pepsi. Pepsi can't be allowed to see the secret formula for Coke. Each customer has its own DMZ infrastructure, and they're 99% identical --- but not completely identical. What's the best way to handle this situation?
Firewall Sync
Playbook acquires your firewall rules directly and puts them in a web console. To make a rule change that affects every firewall in your enterprise, there’s a single place to write and track the change. All your changes are tracked. When it’s time to deploy the change, you click a button, and Playbook handles the drama.
Firewall Rule Analysis
Because Playbook fully understands the rules that it manages, it can detect common syntax errors and flag them before allowing the network to be disrupted by broken configurations.
Playbook's smart handling of firewall configurations does more than just prevent errors. It allows you to organize firewall rules into groups, so that different customers can share the rules that make sense to share, while allowing you to effortlessly make exceptions for different customers.
Push-Button Deployment
Say you have 25 firewalls. Right now, to make a rule change, you have to log into 25 devices and issue commands. Playbook eliminates that problem. It establishes an authenticated connection to the device, which it uses to deploy changes from authorized users. Firewall rule changes no longer require engineers to directly log in to management consoles.
