the IP address of any public servers on your
network.
Firebox Name
(DHCP or PPPoE only.) Specify the name used for
logging and identification of a dynamic Firebox.
All characters are allowed except blank spaces and
forward or back slashes (/ or \). This name does
not have to be a DNS or host name.
Create Passphrase
Passphrases are case-sensitive and must be at least
seven characters long. They can be any
combination of letters, numbers, and special
characters. You will create two passphrases. The
status passphrase is used to establish a read-only
connection to the Firebox. The configuration
passphrase is used to establish a read/write
connection to the Firebox.
Select Connection Method
Select the cabling method used and enter a
temporary IP address for the Firebox so that the
management station can communicate with it to
finish the installation process. This must be an
unused IP address on the same network as the
management station.
Testing the connection
After you have completed the QuickSetup Wizard, test the
connection to the Firebox through the management station.
The Firebox temporary IP address needs to be on the same
network as the management station. If not, the manage-
ment station and Firebox cannot communicate, and you
will not be able to use the management station software to
view the Firebox activity.
You can remove the blue serial cable from the management
station and Firebox after the QuickSetup Wizard is com-
pleted.
