Before You Begin

Complete all tasks in the Preparing for Setup.

Caution

The System Setup Wizard completely reconfigures the appliance. Only use the wizard when you initially install the appliance, or if you want to completely overwrite the existing configuration.

Be sure to connect the Security Management appliance to your network through the Management port.

Caution

The Security Management appliance ships with a default IP address of 192.168.42.42 on the Management port. Before connecting the Security Management appliance to your network, ensure that no other device’s IP address conflicts with the factory default setting.

Note
By default, your session times out if you are idle for more than 30 minutes or if you close the browser without logging out. If this happens, you must reenter your user name and passphrase. If the session times out while you are running the System Setup Wizard, you need to start over from the beginning. To change the timeout limit, see Configuring the Web UI Session Timeout.
