a. Have active Internet services such as that provided by cable or DSL broadband accounts
and locate the Internet Service Provider (ISP) configuration information.
• In this document, the WAN side of the network is presumed to be provisioned as

• If your ISPs charge by the amount of bandwidth you use each month, you may want to
consider setting up a traffic meter to keep track of your traffic.
b. Contact a Dynamic DNS Service and set up your fully qualified domain names if you need
or want them.
3. Plan your network management approach
• The VPN firewall is capable of being managed remotely, but this feature must be enabled
locally after each factory default reset.
You are strongly advised to change the default password password to something that is
more secure at the time you enable remote management.
