Each of these tasks is described separately in this chapter. The configuration of the WAN mode (required for multiple WAN port models), Dynamic DNS, and other WAN options is

described in Chapter 3, Manually Configure Internet and WAN Settings.

The configuration of LAN, firewall, scanning, VPN, management, and monitoring features is described in later chapters.

Qualified Web Browsers

To configure the UTM, you need to use a web browser such as Microsoft Internet Explorer 6 or later, Mozilla Firefox 3 or later, or Apple Safari 3 or later with JavaScript, cookies, and SSL enabled.

Although these web browsers are qualified for use with the UTM’s web management interface, SSL VPN users should choose a browser that supports JavaScript, Java, cookies, SSL, and ActiveX to take advantage of the full suite of applications. Java is required only for the SSL VPN portal, not for the web management interface.

Requirements for Entering IP Addresses

The fourth octet of an IP address needs to be between 1 and 254 (both inclusive). This requirement applies to any IP address that you enter on a screen of the web management interface.

Log In to the UTM

To connect to the UTM, your computer needs to be configured to obtain an IP address automatically from the UTM through DHCP.

To connect and log in to the UTM:

1.Start any of the qualified web browsers, as explained in the previous section, Qualified Web Browsers.

2.In the address field, enter https://192.168.1.1. The NETGEAR Configuration Manager Login screen displays in the browser. (The following figure shows the screen for the UTM50.) This screen also provides the User Portal Login Link. For general information about the User Portal Login Link, see Access the New SSL VPN Portal on page 353; for platform-specific information, see Login Portals on page 380.

Note: The UTM factory default IP address is 192.168.1.1. If you change the IP address, you need to use the IP address that you assigned to the UTM to log in to the UTM.
