How it works

All firewalls share a common ground on their configuration, for example:

• List of commands showing the actual configuration (AKA the running configuration).
• Rules or policies filtering IP packets.
• Objects:
• Addresses (i.e. 10.1.1.1 <-> Administration_Server).
• Address group (i.e. Administration_Farm <-> [ Administration_Server01 , Administration_Server02 ]).
• Port or service (i.e. TCP/80 <-> http).
• Port or service group (i.e. Application_ports <-> { TCP/6600 , TCP/6610 }).
• Interfaces.
• Zones.
• Routing table.
• PBR (policy based route).

Assimilator makes it possible to configure via the five RESTful methods all these portions of configuration with JSON objects:

• GET: Show the object.
• POST: Add new object.
• PATCH: Append new data to object.
• PUT: Replace data in object.
• DELETE: Remove object from configuration
