Pressing Reset twice within 2 seconds resets the CyberGuard SG appliance to its factory
default settings
Enter and confirm a password for your CyberGuard SG appliance. This is the password
for the user root, the main administrative user account on the CyberGuard SG appliance.
It is therefore important that you choose a password that is hard to guess, and keep it
safe.
Note
The new password takes effect immediately. You are prompted to enter it when
completing the next step.
In the row labeled Bridge, click the Modify icon.
Note
The purpose of this step is to configure the IP address for the web management console.
For convenience, this is generally a free IP address on your LAN.
If your LAN has a DHCP server running, you may set up the CyberGuard SG
appliance and your PC to obtain their network settings automatically. Proceed to
Automatic configuration.
Otherwise, you must manually specify network settings for both the CyberGuard SG
appliance and your PC. Proceed to Manual configuration.
Automatic configuration
Before continuing, ensure your DHCP server has two free leases. One is used for the
web management console, the other for your PC.
Note
It is strongly recommended that you reserve the IP address to be used by the web
management console using the CyberGuard SG appliance's MAC address. In bridged
mode, this is the top MAC address of the three displayed on the CyberGuard SG
appliance itself.
