Problem Statement

  • Intra-VPC traffic—best handled by L4 Security Groups/Firewalls
    • Can be provisioned by automation
  • Inter-VPC traffic—best architecture is centralized L4 transit firewall
    • Or L7 NGFW—only if required: expensive
  • Solution: insert firewalls in transit layer

Aviatrix Integrated Firewall

  • Best suited for small scale environments
  • No requirement for NGFWs—use Aviatrix Transit FireNet otherwise
  • Placed in transit layer
  • Rules managed by Aviatrix Controller
  • North+South, East+West, Ingress+Egress traffic
  • Dev team manage L4 Seurity Group/Firewall rules; NetSec manage transit traffic
  • Multicloud
  • No additional components required
