STEP SIX
Now that the parameters have been defined, enter into each menu described above, in the order presented
(read chapter 3, Using Menus, if you have not done so already). Set the parameters in each menu according
to the values you wrote in the figures above. Save the configuration to flash memory at each step when
requested — configurations saved in run memory are erased when the router is turned off. If you saved part of
the configuration to run memory for some reason, save to flash memory now using the menu option ADMIN
=>WRITE CONFIGURATION =>TO FLASH. Be sure to change the superuser password using the menu
option CONFIG =>SECURITY => USERS =>MODIFY. The user ID, super, can remain the same, but the
password must be changed to avoid unauthorized access.

STEP SEVEN
The Ethernet interface can be tested as described in the troubleshooting appendix. The SWAN interface can
be tested in a similar manner. At this point, you should create a backup of the configuration file (in binary) and
print out a listing of the configuration.
