Please Note:
The Admin PC is connected to the Quadro LAN port to access the Web
Management of the Quadro. After the initial configuration has been completed, this PC can
then be moved to the LAN and connect to the Quadro over a switch (see Fig.I-7). You also
may reach the Quadro for its first configuration from an Admin PC within the LAN, but this
may cause collisions in case of non-fitting IP addresses and competing DHCP servers.

If the user already operates a router connected to the cable or DSL modem and has de-
vices behind the router, the router is disconnected from the modem and the Quadro is in-
serted between the modem and the router (see Fig.I-9). The Quadro serves as an Internet
access router and DHCP server. The Quadro will be configured to connect directly to the
Internet through a cable or DSL modem. The router then is connected to the Quadro LAN
port.

Please Note:
If there are services configured behind the existing router such as Web or
gaming servers, these services also must be configured through the Quadro firewall for
proper operation. Refer to the Administrator’s Guide for more information.
