Linking your Sonoran Server

In the Admin panel, navigate to Integrations > Sonoran Shield > Link Your Server

Enter in your Sonoran Servers login credentials.

Configuring your Shield

It is recommended to do the following in order to stop network attacks with Sonoran Shield:

1. Block all unused ports using a "block-all" rule

2. Allow traffic to used ports, allowing all traffic to ports used by your users and whitelisting specific IPs for management ports (such as Remote Desktop or SSH ports)

3. Apply Application Filtering rules to all ports that are open based on their specific application

The following linked guides walk you through how to complete each of the above steps:

• Block unused ports and open required ones

• Apply application-specific filters

• View your attack history

Sonoran Shield Permissions

CMS allows you to grant shield access to other administrators.

In the rank manager, their role will need the Modify Sonoran Shield permission under the System tab.
