1.11 (Optionally) disable the firewall's DHCP server
Per default, the BaseWall VPN 6000 is set to use a DHCP server to
automatically configure network addresses of computers in you local network.
This could, potentially, cause problems if you have another DHCP server
running in your network. Any local network may only contain one DHCP server
at a time.
If you wish the BaseWall VPN 6000 to serve as DHCP server, make sure you
disable any other DHCP servers in your local network.
If you wish to keep your existing DHCP server active, we must deactivate the
BaseWall VPN 6000's built-in DHCP server before connecting the firewall to
your local network.
If you need to disable the BaseWall VPN 6000's built-in DHCP server:
➔ Click on the red text “Current Status” on the left hand side of the screen to
enter the “Current Status” context.
➔ Activate the “Control” tab by clicking it once.
➔ In the “Control” page, in the “Subsystems” table, find the line that says
“DHCP Server” and click on the corresponding “Stop” button.
1.12 Connecting LAN and WAN cables
Now that we have everything set up correctly, we can perform the final step in
the hardware installation of the BaseWall VPN 6000. The firewall is now fully
ready to be deployed.
