This chapter provides step-by-step instructions for installing your CyberGuard SG
appliance into your network and connecting to the Internet. This is a slightly more
detailed version of the printed Quick Install Guide that shipped with your CyberGuard SG
appliance.
These instructions assume you have a PC running Microsoft Windows (95/98/Me/
2000/XP for CyberGuard SG gateway appliances, 2000/XP only for CyberGuard SG PCI
appliances). If you are installing a CyberGuard SG gateway appliance, you must have an
Ethernet network interface card installed. You may need to be logged in with
administrator privileges.
Instructions are not given for other operating systems – refer to your operating system
documentation on how to configure your PCs’ network settings using the examples given
for Windows PCs as a guide.

If you are setting up a CyberGuard SG gateway appliance (SG300, SG530, SG550,
SG570, SG575) proceed to CyberGuard SG gateway appliances below.
•
If you are setting up a CyberGuard SG PCI appliance (PCI630, PCI635), proceed to
CyberGuard SG PCI appliances towards the end of this chapter.
Note
Installing your CyberGuard SG appliance into a well-planned network is easy. However,
network planning is outside the scope of this manual. Please take the time to plan your
network before installing your CyberGuard SG appliance.
