Getting Started

To manually set up your CyberGuard SG appliance’s and PC’s network settings:

Before continuing, ensure you have two free IP addresses that are part of the subnet

range of your LAN, one of these is used for the web management console, the other for

your PC.

You also need to know your LAN’s subnet mask, and the DNS server address and the

Internet gateway address used by PCs on your LAN.

Note

Please contact your network administrator if you are unsure of any of these settings.

In this example, the CyberGuard SG appliance is installed into a LAN that uses the

192.168.1.0 / 255.255.255.0 subnet with a gateway and DNS server at 192.168.1.1.

The IP address of the web management console is 192.168.1.101, the IP address of the

PC is 192.168.1.100.

Enter this IP address for the web management console and the subnet mask for your

LAN into the IP Address and Subnet Mask fields on the web management console’s

Bridge IP Configuration page. The Subnet mask may be entered in dotted decimal

notation (e.g. 255.255.255.0) or binary “slash” notation (e.g. 24).
