Appendix E - Configuring TCP/IP Settings

The following steps describe how to configure the Management Station TCP/IP settings in order
to initially contact the SonicWALL. It is assumed that the Management Station can access the
Internet through an existing connection.
The SonicWALL is pre-configured with the IP address "192.168.168.168". During the initial
configuration, it is necessary to temporarily change the IP address of the Management Station
to one in the same subnet as the SonicWALL. For initial configuration, set the IP address of the
Management Station to "192.168.168.200".
Make a note of the Management Station's current TCP/IP settings. If the Management Station
accesses the Internet through an existing broadband connection, then the TCP/IP settings can
be helpful when configuring the IP settings of the SonicWALL.
