Tool guide limitationsGuides explain the intended workflow but cannot cover every device, provider or operating condition.
Interfaces and external services can change. Follow the current on-screen controls, check dates and vendor documentation, and verify important results independently before acting on them.
Important: Do not rely on this result alone for purchasing, configuration, security, safety, compliance, contractual or fault-diagnosis decisions. Results can be incomplete, delayed, misleading or wrong. Verify important findings with the relevant provider, manufacturer documentation and an appropriate independent test or qualified professional.
Planning
Firewall Migration Planner guide
Analyse a redacted source configuration, map interfaces and prepare a reviewed destination draft.
Open Firewall Migration PlannerWhat you need
- Source and destination vendor/model/release
- Separately redacted source configuration
- Interface and module choices
How to use it
- 1Choose the source and destination profiles.
- 2Read and accept the security warnings.
- 3Upload only an authorised configuration and review detected sensitive material.
- 4Map interfaces on the verified hardware view.
- 5Review coverage, confidence, validation and differences.
- 6Edit and export the draft, report and rollback plan.
Understanding the results
- Direct equivalents have stronger confidence; approximated or unsupported features require manual design.
Recommended next actions
- Peer-review every rule, validate with vendor tooling and test in an isolated lab.
Common problems
- Unsupported syntax, missing modules and representative hardware images can make mappings incomplete.
Privacy and security
- Configuration processing is browser-based, but secrets must still be replaced before production use.
Worked example
- Scenario
- Migrating a sanitised branch firewall
- Example input
- Redacted source config, selected destination model and mapped WAN/LAN ports
- How to read it
- The planner produces a draft plus unsupported-item and rollback evidence for engineering review.
Limitations
- Generated configuration is best-effort and cannot guarantee semantic equivalence.
Do not rely on one result for a production, security, safety, purchasing or contractual decision. Verify important findings independently.
