Figure 2-1 The Login Screen

On brand new (not upgraded from previous releases of AsyncOS) systems, you will automatically be

redirected to the System Setup Wizard.

During the initial system setup, you choose IP addresses for interfaces and whether to run HTTP and/or

HTTPS services for those interfaces. When HTTP and/or HTTPS services have been enabled for an

interface, you can use any supporting browser to view the GUI by entering the IP address or hostname

of the IP interface as a URL in the location field (“address bar”) of the browser.

For example:

http://192.168.1.1 or

https://192.168.1.1 or

http://mail3.example.com or

https://mail3.example.com

Note If HTTPS has been enabled for an interface (and HTTP requests are not being redirected to the secure

service), remember to access the GUI using the “https://” prefix.
