Illumio Segmentation for the Cloud User Guide

Navigating Firewalls and Peering Views on Cloud Map

On the Cloud Map, you can use different view modes to understand firewall topology and peering relationships across your cloud network. Turn on Firewall Topology to identify which VPCs or VNets act as hubs and which act as spokes in relation to a firewall.

In Traffic Graph, hubs and spokes are labeled, but only traffic lines are shown. In Topology Graph, you can also see the relationship lines between hubs and spokes.

To view peering relationships between VPCs or VNets, turn on Peering Connections and switch to Topology Graph for the clearest view of how resources are connected.

Note

Illumio Segmentation for the Cloud does not support Classic Azure Firewall.

For navigating the Infrastructure View, see Navigating Cloud View.

For an overview of Azure Firewalls, see Azure Firewalls Overview.

Here are guidelines and instructions for navigating Firewalls in the Map and from an application.

Note

Click the legend icon on the left side of the map to understand the map's icons, nodes, lines, symbols, and colors.

Peering Modes

You can enable and disable the Peering Mode by clicking the Peering Topology icon in the bottom left. This highlights the hub-and-spoke architecture, showing firewalls located within hub VPCs/VNETs that inspect and govern traffic flowing to and from connected spoke environments.

Traffic Graph and Topology Graph

The Traffic Graph button at the top right of the map shows traffic flow lines. The Topology Graph button shows hub and spoke lines, but not traffic.
