This guide leads you through planning and setting up your initial Sidewinder

problems are not anticipated, this guide also includes helpful troubleshooting
tips.
This guide is for anyone assigned to initially set up a Sidewinder Network
Gateway appliance. It assumes you are familiar with networks and network
terminology. You should also be familiar with the Internet and its associated
terms and applications. Please take a few minutes to get acquainted with the
documentation.
The Management Tools CD includes the Sidewinder documentation in portable

onto your hard drive. Updated documents, when necessary, will automatically
load when you upgrade your Sidewinder. You can view the documents by
selecting
Start > Programs > Secure Computing > Sidewinder 7 Admin
Console > Documentation
Note:
To view Sidewinder documents prior to installing the Windows-based tools,
