2.7 Configuration Wizard
Using this Wizard you can define all basic WinRoute parameters. It is started automatically by
the installation program.
Setting of administration username and password
Definition of the administration password is essential for the security of the firewall. Do not
use the standard (blank) password, otherwise unauthorized users may be able to access the
WinRoute configuration.
Figure 2.6 Initial configuration — Setting of administration username and password
Password and its confirmation must be entered in the dialog for account settings. Name Admin
can be changed in the Username edit box.
Note: If the installation is running as an upgrade, this step is skipped since the administrator
account already exists.
Remote Access
Immediately after the first WinRoute Firewall Engine startup all network traffic will be blocked
(desirable traffic must be permitted by traffic rules — see chapter 7 ). If WinRoute is installed
remotely (i.e. using terminal access), communication with the remote client will be also inter-
rupted immediately (WinRoute must be configured locally).
Within Step 2 of the configuration wizard specify the IP address of the host from which the
firewall will be controlled remotely (i.e. using terminal services) to enable remote installation
