Connect the supplied power adapter to the CyberGuard SG appliance.

If you are using the SG530, SG550, SG570 or SG575 model, connect the CyberGuard
SG appliance’s LAN Ethernet port directly to your PC’s network interface card using the
crossover cable (red or gray).

If you are using the SG300 model, connect your PC’s network interface card directly to
one of the ports on the CyberGuard SG appliance’s LAN Ethernet switch using a straight
through cable
(blue).

Note

It is recommended that you perform the initial setup steps with the CyberGuard SG
appliance connected to a single PC only. However, you may choose to connect the
CyberGuard SG appliance to the LAN before completing the initial setup steps.

Before doing so, it is critical that you ensure there are no other devices on the LAN
with an address of 192.168.0.1

Use the straight through cable (blue) to connect the CyberGuard SG appliance to your
LAN’s hub. You may need to use a crossover cable (gray or red) to connect if you wish
to connect the SG300 model’s LAN switch to another hub.
