User’s Manual

AW-HSNetAppliance

When the configuration is complete, connect the Net Appliances to available ports on their

respective LANs, the Server on the Main Network LAN and the Client on the Linked Network

LAN and apply power to them. A computer on the respective LAN can be used to browse to the

Net Appliance there to check on the status. An even easier, though less complete way to check

the status is to view the LEDs on the top of the Net Appliance case.
As soon as the units are connected and active, they attempt to connect. The Statistics page

(home page) of each Net Appliance and its LEDs will indicate a status of “Searching.” The

Server will remain in this state until the Client makes connection, then the status will change

to “Connected.” On the Client side, if the Server does not connect after 2 minutes an error

message, “Server is unreachable” will appear.
When the two units are successfully connected, the tunnel can be tested by sending traffic

from a device on one LAN to a device on the other. The Net Appliance Statistics page will show

incrementing counts of transmitted and received data.
