Entering the Default User ID and Password

Caution

GTA recommends changing the default user ID and password to
prevent unauthorized access.

Entering Your Network Information
GB-Ware requires entry of the serial number and activation code. Click on
Basic Configuration and expand the menu, then select Features. Enter the serial
number and activation code, then click the

SAVE

button then the

OK

button.

The firewall has default settings which need to be changed to match your
network settings. Click on Basic Configuration and expand the menu, then
select Network Information.
Only one external and one protected network interface is required to
initially configure and test the firewall. The other interface can be defined as
any of the three network types: protected, external or PSN (Private Service
Network, GTA's enhanced DMZ).

1) On the Network Information section:
• Enter IP addresses and net masks (in either dotted decimal or

CIDR notation) for your external and protected networks on each
network interface.

• Disable the DHCP option on the external network interface if neces-

sary.

• Enter the default route to your Internet router’s IP address.
• Enter the firewall’s domain name according to your DNS server.

This will automatically generate a new SSL certificate for the firewall
using its domain name.
