The Web Interface prevents the caching of the password from the login credentials. This
is also done in other NetDefendOS features where a password is requested through a
browser screen. For example, with VPN authentication.
First Time Web Interface Login and the Setup Wizard
When logging on for the first time, the default username is always admin and the password is
admin .
After successful login, the NetDefendOS Web Interface will be presented in the browser window.
If no configuration changes have yet been uploaded to the NetDefend Firewall, the NetDefendOS
Setup Wizard will start automatically to take a new user through the essential steps for
NetDefendOS setup and establishing public Internet access.
Important: Switch off popup blocking
Popup blocking must be disabled in the web browser to allow the NetDefendOS Setup
Wizard to run since this appears in a popup window.
The wizard can be terminated and setup up done as a series of separate steps through the Web
Interface if desired or alternatively through the CLI.
Multi-language Support
The Web Interface login dialog offers the option to select a language other than English for the
interface. Language support is provided by a set of separate resource files. These files can be
downloaded from the D-Link website.
It may occasionally be the case that a NetDefendOS upgrade can contain features that
temporarily lack a complete non-English translation because of time constraints. In this case the
original English will be used as a temporary solution in place of a translation to the selected
language.
The Web Browser Interface
On the left hand side of the Web Interface is a tree which allows navigation to the various sets of
NetDefendOS objects. The central area of the Web Interface displays information about those
modules. Current performance information is shown by default.
