Traffic Objects

Create traffic objects for zone-based security.
This page helps you to create a traffic object with specific cloud assets and map the traffic object to a zone. Attach the zone to a security policy to enforce the policy rules on the AI traffic sourced from this zone.
  1. Select Network Traffic Objects.
  2. Select Add.
  3. Enter a Name for the Traffic Object.
  4. Select your virtual systems Location.
  5. Write a Description.
  6. Select the Type as K8s Cluster ID or VPC Endpoint ID.
    To get the VPC Endpoint ID, go to AWS Console and search for VPC. Click on Endpoints, find your endpoint, and copy the ID from the "Endpoint ID" column. Refer to Create and View NGFW Endpoints.
  7. Enter the K8s Cluster ID or the VPC Endpoint ID in the Traffic Object ID.
    • If the type is K8s Cluster ID, the traffic object ID values can be between 1-2048.
    • If the type is VPC Endpoint ID, the Traffic Object ID format is: vpc-xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx (17 alpha numeric characters)
  8. Select the existing ingress Zone for the traffic object or create a new zone.
    • Select the Logical Router from the list or create a new Logical router under Network > Routing > Logical Routers. (You don’t have to configure the Virtual router, as advanced routing is enabled by default).
  9. Select OK to create the traffic object.
