ABSTRACT:
Administering tunneling on a firewall computer between a secure computer network and a nonsecure computer network in a web based interface is disclosed. Tunnels are displayed in graphical depictions as lines connecting icons representing network addresses. User selection of a line, will bring up a selected tunnel definition represented by the first line is displayed in another pane in the interface or a list of filter rules applicable to the tunnel. At this point, an action on the selected tunnel definition may be performed responsive to user input. Queries can be run on a tunnel definition to determine whether any existing tunnel definitions match the entered tunnel definition, or whether there are any filter rules in effect for a given tunnel definition. The results of the query are displayed in a scatter bar in another pane in the user interface, wherein locations of matches are indicated by lines through the scatter bar. A small bar is displayed proximate to the scatter bar, the small bar indicating the position of the displayed list relative to a complete list represented by the scatter bar.
