Description

IP Address

Obtain IP address automatically. Select this button to obtain the IP address from a
dynamic host configuration protocol (DHCP) server.

IMPORTANT: The primary and in-path interfaces can share the same subnet. The
primary and auxiliary interfaces cannot share the same network subnet.

Specify IP Address Manually. Select this button if you do not use a DHCP server to set
the IP address. Specify the following settings:

IP Address. Type an IP address in the text box. This IP address is the in-path main

interface.

Subnet Mask. Type a subnet mask in the text box.

In-Path Gateway IP. Type the IP address for the in-path gateway in the text box. If you

have a router (or a Layer-3 switch) on the LAN side of your network, specify this
device as the in-path gateway.

IMPORTANT: If there is a routed network on the LAN-side of the in-path appliance, the
router that is the default gateway for the appliance must not have the Access Control List
(ACL) configured to drop packets from the remote hosts as its source. The in-path
appliance uses IP masquerading to appear as the remote server.
