Default Device Settings
Table 7 describes the default interface-to-zone bindings on an SSG 500-series
device.
Note that the ethernet0/0 interface has the default IP address 192.168.1.1/24 and is
configured for management services. If you connect the ethernet0/0 port on the
device to a workstation, you can configure the device from a workstation in the
192.168.1.1/24 subnetwork using a management service such as Telnet. You can
change the default IP address on the ethernet0/0 interface to match the addresses
on your LAN. There are no other default IP addresses configured on other ports on
the device; you must assign IP addresses to other interfaces.
