Step 4: Set Library Updates

After verifying that the R3000 is correctly installed on your network, you need to activate

the 8e6 library each day. To activate updates, visit the 8e6 Technologies Web site and

enter the activation code that was issued to you by e-mail (also included on the product

invoice).

NOTE: Port 443 (HTTPS) must be open for outgoing requests so that the R3000

can receive library updates.
