2 Wizard: Internet connections
The wizard “Internet connections” is intended to help you manage your
Internet connection settings. With it you can add a new Internet connection or
modify an existing one. You can open the wizard “Internet connections” from
the firewall's management interface, by entering the “Configuration” context
and clicking the text “Internet connections” right below the “Setup
subsystems” heading on the left-hand side of the page. This should make the
window “Manage Internet Connections” appear.
2.1 Adding an Internet connection
To add a new Internet connection, click the “Add new” button from the
“Manage Internet connections” window. The window's title will change to
“Setup Internet connection”.
In this screen we can enter a name for the new Internet connection. Any name
can be entered here. You are encouraged to use a descriptive name for the
Internet connection. For example “MyISP DSL” or “AOL dial in”. This way, it will
be easier to tell two separate Internet connections apart in the future.
➔ Enter a “Connection name” for your new Internet connection.
Optionally, we will be able choose an Ethernet port for our new Internet
connection. Valid choices for Ethernet ports are “WAN1”, “WAN2” and “FLEX1”
through “FLEX4” (corresponding to the Ethernet ports with these labels on the
front of your BaseWall VPN 6000).
➔ Select the Ethernet port we will use for this connection.
Determining the type of Internet connection is slightly more complicated.
