7.1.4 NETWORK VERIFICATION AND TROUBLESHOOTING

You should have a working network configuration at this time and the following chapter will help you to verify it.

The first things to do is to test again the network connectivity as described in chapter 7.1.1.2 Connectivity, you should

get the result “full”.

If not, your configuration is not right or your network block outgoing connection. In all case, you must be able to

reach your main gateway, this can be verified using the command ping (with our example gateway):

$ ping 192.168.1.1

PING 192.168.1.1 (192.168.1.1) 56(84) bytes of data.

64 bytes from 192.168.1.1: icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=6.43 ms

64 bytes from 192.168.1.1: icmp_seq=2 ttl=64 time=6.43 ms

64 bytes from 192.168.1.1: icmp_seq=3 ttl=64 time=6.45 ms

--- 192.168.1.1 ping statistics ---

3 packets transmitted, 3 received, 0% packet loss, time 2004ms

rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 6.425/6.434/6.453/0.013 ms

Or traceroute:

traceroute 192.168.1.1

traceroute to 192.168.1.1 (192.168.1.1), 30 hops max, 38 byte packets

1 192.168.1.1 (192.168.1.1) 6.357 ms 6.380 ms 6.324 ms

If you don’t have access to the gateway, verify your network parameters and be sure you have reloaded your

connection.

If you have access to the gateway, contact your IT support to verify for example outgoing connection are authorized

for your device.

If all is working, you can now reach your gateway using SSH and the web interface which will be used by default for

the next chapters.

7.2 SECURITY

7.2.1 PASSWORD

One of the first step to do once logged in the web interface is to change the admin password. Unless you use your

gateway for development in a controlled network, this is a basic security advice which can prevents obviously easy

attack to be done.
