6. Click Apply to save your settings.

If the interface is configured to terminate SSL VPN connections, then restart the SSL VPN
Concentrator software for the change to take effect.

To complete the IP settings configuration, also configure SSL VPN Concentrator DNS settings
and network routes.

Network Route Configuration

From the Network Route screen, you can define the default network route and add additional static
routes to local area subnets. The default route is required for Internet access. Static routes are
optional.

To configure the default route:

1. In the Network menu, check the Static Routes radio button. The Network menu displays both

Add Default Route and Add Static Routes fields, as shown below.

2. In the Add Default Route section, enter the IP address of the router or default gateway of the

network in the Default Gateway Address field.

The default gateway address is the same gateway address used by local area network
computers to connect to the Internet and it may be the address of a network firewall.

3. From the Interface pull-down menu, select the Ethernet interface (ethernet-1 or ethernet-2)

that should be used to connect to the default gateway address.

4. Click Apply. Once updated, the route appears in the Static Routes table.

Note: The SSL VPN Concentrator does not perform Network Address Translation

(NAT). And the SSL VPN Concentrator only enforces access policies on SSL
VPN traffic, not on other TCP/IP protocols. Therefore, the SSL VPN
Concentrator should be used in conjunction with a network firewall.

Note: The SSL VPN Concentrator administrative session will end when the software

is restarted. To log in to the SSL VPN Concentrator management interface,
enter the new IP address of the SSL VPN Concentrator device in the Address
or Location field of your web browser. Be sure that the management station is
in the same subnet as the new SSL VPN Concentrator IP address.
