Checking Link LEDs
The WAN Link LED and the LAN Link LED light up when the SonicWALL is properly
connected to the LAN and WAN ports of the computer and the modem.
Important:
You may have to switch the red crossover cable with the standard grey cable
to establish a connection. Switch cables until a link is established. Switching between a
crossover cable and a standard cable does not damage your SonicWALL or your computer.
Setting Up a Management Station
To access the SonicWALL Management interface, you must set up a PC on your LAN to be in
the same subnet (network) as the SonicWALL. This computer is called the “Management
Station”.
Accessing the SonicWALL from your PC
The SonicWALL is preconfigured to have an IP address of 192.168.168.168. To contact the
SonicWALL for the first time, you must change the Management Station (your PC) IP address
to 192.168.168.X where X is any number between 0 and 254, except 168 which is the
SonicWALL IP address. In this section, you configure your Management Station IP address to
192.168.168.200.
