CONFIGURING THE

BARRICADE

After you have configured TCP/IP on a client computer, use a web browser to configure the Barricade. The Barricade can be configured by any Java-supported browser such as Internet Explorer 5.5 or above. Using the web management interface, you can configure the Barricade and view statistics to monitor network activity.

To access the Barricade’s management interface, enter the IP address of the Barricade in your web browser:

http://192.168.2.1

(The Barricade automatically switches to Port 80 for management access.)
