You do this by having firewall modules connected to an Enterprise
Management Console which you then connect to with your GUI.
Basically:
Firewall Module
/
GUI --- Management console ---<-Firewall Module
\
Firewall Module

When using NG, each firewall gets defined as having FW-1 installed and the
MAnagement console gets defined as being a management console.

Nope.
