Introduction to the WebUI Application
The Check Point Appliance uses a web application to configure the appliance.
After you use the First Time Configuration Wizard (see the Check Point Appliance
Guide
), when you connect to the appliance with a browser (with the appliance's IP or, if the
appliance is used as a DNS proxy or DHCP server, to "my.firewall"), it redirects the web page to a
secure https site and asks for administrator credentials. When you log in, you can select the Save
user name checkbox to save the administrator's user name. The name is saved until you clear the
browser's cookies.
When you log in correctly, the WebUI opens to Home > System. The left pane lets you navigate
between the different pages of each of these tabs:
•
Home
• Device
•
Access Policy
• Threat Prevention
•
VPN
• Users & Objects
•
Logs & Monitoring
To log in to the WebUI in a different language:
In the browser page that shows the Login window, select the language link at the bottom of the
page.
The log in page changes immediately to the selected language. The next login from the same
computer is in the selected language (saved in a browser cookie). The language is kept until you
clear the browser's cookies.
Note - If the locale of a user matches a localized WebUI, the Login window automatically loads in
the specified language. Only English is supported as the input language.
