Global Technology Associates SOFTWARE FIREWALL GBWA200501-01 - Manual (Page 55)

4 – Troubleshooting 51
Note
Those upgrading from GNAT Box System Software version 2.x or
lower should record all configuration data and use it as a guide to
enter new configuration data manually. You may use the web
interface to print the configuration or manually record it.
1) Once you have installed GB-Ware on a Compact Flash card or hard
drive, power up the GB-Ware firewall.
2) Overwrite the default GB-Ware configuration with your network in-
formation. See the configuration chapter for instructions on entering
this information.
If you have installed the SIO (“serial console only”) version of the
runtime, when the boot process is complete, the firewall will be un-
registered and configured with factory default settings; use the web
interface, GBAdmin or the serial console to enter your network set-
tings. If you have installed the video console version of the GNAT
Box runtime, use the video console’s Setup Wizard.
3) Access the GB-Ware firewall on its protected network interface to
test firewall connectivity.
Note
For the upgrade, connectivity with the protected network interface
is particularly important; you will use the protected interface to
connect to the GB-Ware firewall using GBAdmin or the web interface,
and transfer the GB-Ware firewall configuration.
Merging Configurations Using GBAdmin
Unless you are uploading a new version of GNAT Box System Software
to the same firewall, you will need to merge the configuration of the old
firewall with the new GB-Ware configuration. Configuration merging can
currently only be achieved by using GBAdmin.
1) Start your new version of GBAdmin. (In Windows, go to Start Menu/
Programs/GTA/GB-Ware 3.x.x/GBAdmin.)
2) Make sure the GB-Ware firewall is powered on and connectivity is
possible.
3) In GBAdmin, click File then Open. Select the
NETWORK
radio button.
In the S
OURCE
field, enter the GB-Ware firewall’s protected network
interface IP address. Click the
OK
button.
