CyberGuard SG Gateway Appliances

Set up a PC to Connect to the Web Management Console

The CyberGuard SG appliance ships with initial, static IP settings of:

IP address:

192.168.0.1

Subnet mask:

255.255.255.0

Note

The Internet/WAN and DMZ interfaces are by default inactive, i.e. there are no network
services such as DHCP in operation, and no IP address is configured.

The CyberGuard SG appliance’s LAN interface will always be initially reachable at
192.168.0.1.

If you attach your CyberGuard SG unit directly to a LAN with an existing DHCP server
before performing the initial setup steps described below, the LAN interface will
automatically obtain an additional address.

In this case, it will be reachable at both 192.168.0.1 and the address assigned by your
LAN DHCP server. The address you use when navigating to the unit (as described
Set
up the CyberGuard SG appliance's password and LAN connection settings) will be used
as the CyberGuard SG unit’s LAN interface address and the other will be discarded.

Your CyberGuard SG appliance will need an IP address suitable for your LAN before it is
connected. You may choose to use the CyberGuard SG appliance’s initial network
settings as a basis for your LAN settings.
