To stop using the current MAC address:
1 Select the Enable override MAC address for the External
Network checkbox, or select the Enable override MAC address
for the Failover Network checkbox.
You can select the checkboxes together.
2 In the External network override AC address or Failover
network override AC address text box, type the new MAC
address for the Firebox X Edge external or failover network.
3 Click Submit.
NOTE
If the MAC address for the external network field is cleared and
the Firebox X Edge is restarted, the Firebox X Edge uses the
standard MAC address for the external network.
To stop MAC address problems, the Firebox X Edge finds the current
MAC address at regular intervals. If the Edge finds a device using the
same MAC address, the Firebox changes to the standard MAC
address for the external network. Then the Edge restarts.
Type the IP address of the trusted network in your browser window
to connect to the System Status page of the Firebox X Edge.
