Set up the PCs on your LAN to Access the Internet

Note

If you have changed the CyberGuard SG appliance’s LAN connection settings, it may
become uncontactable at this point. This step describes how to set up the PCs on your
network to access the CyberGuard SG appliance and the Internet.

If you haven’t already, connect your CyberGuard SG appliance’s LAN Ethernet port
directly to your LAN hub using the straight through Ethernet cable (blue).

To access the Internet, the PCs on your network must all be set up to use the
CyberGuard SG appliance as their default gateway. This can be done a number of
different ways depending on how your LAN is set up.

If your LAN already has a DHCP server (aside from the CyberGuard SG appliance
you are setting up), proceed to LAN with a DHCP server
.

If your LAN does not have a DHCP server, proceed to LAN with no DHCP server.

If you are not sure, you probably want LAN with no DHCP server.
