1 Overview

The WFilter cloud service offers a centralized service for managing multiple wfilter devices. The following functions can be achieved:

  • View device address, system version, IP address, and alert information
  • Synchronize configurations
  • Access the management interface via Internet

The cloud service has following modules: Devices(management of wfilter devices), Configurations(create and synchronize configurations), and Operators(manage operators of the cloud service).

Please note: relaying of wfilter web UI is via our website wfilterngf.com, so the speed is not as fast as direct access.

2 User Registration

Click "Sign up" to create a new user. The username must be an email address, which can also be used to reset the password.

3 Device management

3.1 WFilter side

In WFilter, the SDWAN service needs to be enabled, and the network ID displayed in the upper right corner of the cloud service should be joined.

3.2 Join WFilter device to the cloud service

In the "Devices" of the cloud service, click "New device" and enter the device's SDWAN ID, username, and password. The cloud service will retrieve information such as the status and configuration of the terminal device through WFilter API. So correct username and password shall be provided. If "Set as Template" is selected, you can also create configurations from the template in "Configurations".

Please note: synchronizing the network or firewall settings of a device may cause it to lose network connectivity. Use it with caution. You're recommended to test it locally before synchronizing to other terminals.

5 Restricting login IPs

If you have restricted the login IP addresses in Config - System - Operators, you need to add the cloud service's IP address (10.192.0.1) to the allowed IP list.
