cOS Core Starts After Power Up
It is assumed that the X8 unit is now unpacked, positioned correctly and powered is applied. If
not, the earlier chapters in this manual should be referred to before continuing.
Clavister's cOS Core network security operating system is preloaded on the X8 and will
automatically boot up after power is applied. After boot-up is complete, an external
management computer workstation can be used to configure cOS Core.
