Accessing the Management Interface

To access the Web-based management interface of the SonicWALL SSL-VPN 2000:

1. Connect one end of an Ethernet cable into the X0 port of your SonicWALL SSL-

VPN 2000. Connect the other end of the cable into the computer you are using to

manage the SonicWALL SSL-VPN 2000.

2. Set the computer you use to manage the SonicWALL SSL-VPN 2000 to have a static

IP address in the 192.168.200.x/24 subnet, such as 192.168.200.20. For help with

setting up a static IP address on your computer, refer to “Configuring a Static IP

Address” on page 62.

Alert: A Web browser supporting Java and HTTP uploads, such as Internet Explorer

6.5 or higher, Firefox 1.0 or higher, Opera 7.0 or higher, or Safari 1.2 or higher

is recommended.*

3. Open a Web browser and enter http://192.168.200.1 (the default X0 management IP

address) in the Location or Address field.

4. A security warning may appear. Click Continue to this website or the OK button to

accept the certificate and continue.

* While these browsers are acceptable for use in configuring your SonicWALL SSL-

VPN 2000, end users will need to use IE 6.5 or higher, Firefox 1.5 or higher, Opera 9.0

or higher, or Safari 2.0 or higher in order to take advantage of the full suite of applica-

tions.
