  2. Create Virtual IP.
  3. Check the coherence.

1. Connect to the Selectel firewall⁠

    https://<ip_address>:5443

    Specify <ip_address> — The IP address of the firewall.

  2. Enter the login and password you received in the ticket after ordering the firewall. The main page of the GUI with the dashboard opens.

  1. On the Firewall menu, go to Virtual IPs.
  2. Press + Add.
  3. In the Type field, select IP Alias.
