1) Configure network Interface eth0 (internet)
set interfaces ethernet eth0 address dhcp
set interfaces ethernet eth0 description 'OUTSIDE'
2) Configure network interface eth1 (dmz)
set interfaces ethernet eth1 address '192.168.2.1/24'
set interfaces ethernet eth1 description 'DMZ'
3) Configure network interface eth2 (lan)
set interfaces ethernet eth1 address '192.168.3.1/24'
set interfaces ethernet eth1 description ‘LAN’
4) Enable SSH for remote access:
set service ssh port '22'
5) Configure DHCP server for LAN network
set service dhcp-server disabled 'false'
set service dhcp-server shared-network-name LAN subnet 192.168.3.0/24 default-router '192.168.3.1'
set service dhcp-server shared-network-name LAN subnet 192.168.3.0/24 dns-server '192.168.3.1'

set service dhcp-server shared-network-name LAN subnet 192.168.0.0/24 start 192.168.3.100 stop '192.168.3.254'
6) Configure Source NAT for our "LAN" & "DMZ" network.
set nat source rule 100 outbound-interface 'eth0'
set nat source rule 100 source address '192.168.0.0/16'
set nat source rule 100 translation address masquerade
7) And a DNS forwarder
set service dns forwarding cache-size '0'
set service dns forwarding listen-on 'eth1'
set service dns forwarding listen-on 'eth2'
set service dns forwarding name-server '8.8.8.8'
set service dns forwarding name-server '8.8.4.4'
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
8) Local Firewall Rules
* State Policy (accept established,related; drop invalid)
* Accept ICMP echo-request (ping)
* Accept DHCP request
* Accept DNS requests
* Limit SSH connections to 3 per minute per IP address and accept SSH from management networks
* Accept SNMP from management networks

====================================================================================
- create the “outgoing” policy for the LAN and DMZ
set firewall name LAN-OUT default-action 'drop'

set firewall name DMZ-OUT rule 1100 source group network-group 'NET-LAN'
set firewall name DMZ-OUT rule 1100 state new 'enable'
- apply these to their interfaces:
set interfaces ethernet eth1 firewall out name 'DMZ-OUT'
set interfaces ethernet eth2 firewall out name 'LAN-OUT'
10) Enable logging
- log configuration changes
set firewall config-trap 'enable'
- log traffic that reaches the default rule of a named policy (in our case the default drop)
set firewall name LAN-IN 'enable-default-log'
set firewall name LAN-OUT 'enable-default-log'
set firewall name DMZ-IN 'enable-default-log'
set firewall name DMZ-OUT 'enable-default-log'
11) Enable global configuration default
set firewall all-ping 'enable'
set firewall broadcast-ping 'disable'
set firewall ip-src-route 'disable'
set firewall log-martians 'enable'
set firewall receive-redirects 'disable'
set firewall send-redirects 'disable'
