2. Getting Started

This chapter provides step-by-step instructions for installing your CyberGuard SG appliance into your network and connecting to the Internet. This is a slightly more detailed version of the printed Quick Install Guide that shipped with your CyberGuard SG appliance.

These instructions assume you have a PC running Microsoft Windows (95/98/Me/ 2000/XP for CyberGuard SG gateway appliances, 2000/XP only for CyberGuard SG PCI appliances). If you are installing a CyberGuard SG gateway appliance, you must have an Ethernet network interface card installed. You may need to be logged in with administrator privileges.

Instructions are not given for other operating systems – refer to your operating system documentation on how to configure your PCs’ network settings using the examples given for Windows PCs as a guide.

If you are setting up a CyberGuard SG gateway appliance (SG300, SG530, SG550, SG570, SG575) proceed to CyberGuard SG gateway appliances below.

If you are setting up a CyberGuard SG PCI appliance (PCI630, PCI635), proceed to CyberGuard SG PCI appliances towards the end of this chapter.

Note

Installing your CyberGuard SG appliance into a well-planned network is easy. However, network planning is outside the scope of this manual. Please take the time to plan your network before installing your CyberGuard SG appliance.
