Running the QuickSetup Wizard
User Guide 37
Enter the Firebox Default Gateway
(Not applicable if using DHCP or PPPoE on the External
interface.) Enter the IP address of the default gateway, which is
usually the IP address of your Internet router. This IP address
must be on the same network as the Firebox External interface. If
the IP address is not on the same network, the QuickSetup Wizard
will warn you and ask whether you want to continue.
Configure Public Servers
(Not applicable if using DHCP or PPPoE on External interface.)
Select the checkbox and enter the IP address of any public servers
on your network.
Firebox Name
(DHCP or PPPoE only.) Specify the name used for logging and
identification of a dynamic Firebox. All characters are allowed
except blank spaces and forward or back slashes (/ or \). This
name does not have to be a DNS or host name.
Create Passphrase
Passphrases are case-sensitive and must be at least seven
characters long. They can be any combination of letters, numbers,
and special characters. You will create two passphrases. The status
passphrase is used to establish a read-only connection to the
Firebox. The configuration passphrase is used to establish a read/
write connection to the Firebox.
Select Connection Method
Select the cabling method used and enter a temporary IP address
for the Firebox so that the Management Station can communicate
with it to finish the installation process. This must be an unused IP
address on the same network as the Management Station.
Testing the connection
After you have completed the QuickSetup Wizard, test the connection to
the Firebox through the Management Station. The Firebox temporary IP
address needs to be on the same network as the Management Station. If
not, the Management Station and Firebox cannot communicate, and you
will not be able to use the Management Station software to view the
Firebox activity.
