Installation guide

Set up a single computer connection

The UTM Firewall device ships with initial network settings of:

• LAN IP address – 192.168.0.1

• LAN subnet mask – 255.255.255.0

The UTM Firewall device needs an IP address suitable for your LAN

before it is connected. You can choose to use the UTM Firewall device

initial network settings as a basis for your LAN settings.

NOTE: Initial configuration is performed through port A. McAfee

strongly recommends you do not connect the UTM Firewall device to

your LAN until this guide instructs you to. If you attach port A directly

to a LAN with an existing DHCP server, or a computer running a DHCP

service, the UTM Firewall device automatically obtains an additional

address. The UTM Firewall device is still reachable at

192.168.0.1.

All other network ports are by default inactive; that is, they are not

running any network services such as DHCP, and they are not

configured with an IP address.

1 Connect the power cable to the power inlet on the rear panel of

the UTM Firewall device.

2 Turn on the rear panel power switch. The power light turns on.

3 Connect port A directly to your computer network interface card

(NIC) using the supplied network cable.

4 Modify your computer's network settings to enable

communication with the UTM Firewall device.

a Click Start | (Settings |) Control Panel and double-click

Network Connections.

b Right-click Local Area Connection, then select Properties.

NOTE: If there is more than one existing network connection, select

the connection corresponding to the NIC that the UTM Firewall

device is attached to.

5 Select Internet Protocol (TCP/IP), then click Properties. The

Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) Properties dialog box appears

(Figure 2).
