CyberGuard SG PCI appliances can also connect to the Internet in this manner, but generally will be connecting directly to a LAN by selecting either Direct Internet or Bridged Internet.
Physically connect modem device
The first step in connecting your office network to the Internet is to physically attach your CyberGuard SG appliance to the modem device.
Note
If you are configuring an analog modem or ISDN connection as your primary Internet connection, proceed to the section entitled COM/Modem.
Connect your CyberGuard SG appliance‘s Internet port to the modem device using a straight through Ethernet cable. Apply power to the modem device and give it some time to power up. If fitted, ensure the Ethernet link LEDs are illuminated on both the CyberGuard SG appliance and modem device.
Internet Connection Methods
Select your Internet connection type from the Configuration pull down menu.
Cable
Select your cable ISP from the list and click Next. If your provider does not appear, select Generic Cable Modem Provider. For cable modem providers other than Generic, enter your user name and password and click Finish. You are now ready to connect. Click the Reboot button to save your configuration and reboot your CyberGuard SG appliance.
ADSL
If you are connecting to the Internet using ADSL, you must select the connection method PPPoE, DHCP, or Manually Assign Settings. Alternatively, the CyberGuard SG appliance can determine the connection method automatically (recommended). Select the appropriate method and click Apply.
