Quick Setup Steps
The following sections provide instructions for basic appliance configuration. They are
presented in the order in which you should complete them. You can access Quick
Setup through the Start menu in the web UI.
Interfaces
The Interfaces function provides access to appliance network adapter configuration. A
network adapter is used for Ethernet connections and is both the physical interface,
or connector, and the hardware for access to a network. An adapter is also commonly
referred to as an adapter card or a network interface card (NIC). This section provides
a brief description of the configuration settings in the Interfaces web UI feature and
how to access them.
Use the Interfaces function to assign either DHCP or static IP addresses to the LAN
and WAN adapters. You can assign addresses to the DMZ adapters (Eth 2 and above)
the same way, but these are for optional additional networks that may either be
perimeter or internal.
The list of interfaces includes the following information:
 Name – displays Ethernet connection identification.
 Device Name – displays hardware adapter identification.
 IP Address – displays the Internet Protocol address.
