Preparing the configuration
5.4.1
Connection requirements
–
For local configuration: The computer used for configuration must meet the following
requirements:
–
The computer must be connected to the mGuard LAN connection or to the mGuard
via the local network.
–
For remote configuration: The mGuard must be configured so that remote configura-
tion is permitted.
–
The mGuard must be connected, i.e., the required connections must be working.
5.4.2
Local configuration on startup (EIS)
As of firmware version 7.2, initial startup of mGuard products provided in Stealth mode is
considerably easier. From this version onwards, the EIS (Easy Initial Setup) procedure en-
ables startup to be performed via preset or user-defined management addresses without
actually having to connect to an external network.
The mGuard is configured using a web browser on the computer used for configuration.
NOTE: The web browser used must support SSL encryption (i.e., HTTPS).
According to the default setting, the mGuard can be accessed via the following addresses:

The mGuard is preset to the "multiple Clients" stealth configuration. You need to configure
a management IP address and default gateway if you want to use VPN connections (see
Page 101). Alternatively, you can select a different stealth configuration or use another net-
work mode.
