This chapter provides an overview of your CyberGuard SG appliance’s features and capabilities, and explains how to install and configure your CyberGuard SG appliance.
This manual describes how to take advantage of the features of your CyberGuard SG appliance, including setting up network connections, a secure firewall and a VPN. It also describes how to set up the CyberGuard SG appliance on your existing or new network using the Web Management Console web administration pages.
CyberGuard SG Gateway Appliances
The CyberGuard SG gateway appliance range (SG300, SG530, SG550, SG570, SG575) enables your office LAN to share a single, secure Internet connection.
The CyberGuard SG appliance provides Internet security and privacy of communications for small and medium enterprises. It simply and securely connects your office to the Internet, and with its robust stateful firewall, shields your computers from outside threats. The CyberGuard SG appliance checks and filters data packets to prevent unauthorized intruders gaining access.
1. Introduction
The CyberGuard SG appliance’s NAT/masquerading firewall means that although computers on your office network can see and access resources on the Internet, all outsiders see is the CyberGuard SG appliance’s external address.
CyberGuard SG appliance models SG570 and SG575 have an additional Ethernet port that may be configured as a physically separate DMZ to host servers accessible to the outside world, in order to further secure your local network. Alternatively, it may be configured as a second Internet connection to perform network load balancing.
The CyberGuard SG appliance provides you with a Virtual Private Network (VPN) server. A VPN enables remote workers or branch offices to securely access your company network to send and receive data at a very low cost. With the CyberGuard SG appliance, you can remotely access your office network securely using the Internet. The CyberGuard SG appliance can also connect to external VPNs as a client.
Introduction
1
The following figure shows how your CyberGuard SG appliance interconnects.
CyberGuard SG PCI Appliances
The CyberGuard SG PCI appliance (SG630, SG635) is a hardware-based firewall and VPN server embedded in a 10/100 Ethernet PCI network interface card (NIC). It is installed into the host PC like a regular NIC, providing a transparent firewall to shield the host PC from malicious Internet traffic, and VPN services to allow secure remote access to the host PC.
Figure 1-1
This appliance is recommended for:
Security conscious businesses that wish to separate firewall and VPN issues from server/desktop operating systems.
Businesses that wish to eliminate the "soft center".
For environments where the integrity of the host server operating environment
cannot be controlled or trusted.
Unlike CyberGuard SG gateway appliances, a single CyberGuard SG PCI appliance it is not intended as a means for your entire office LAN to be connected to, and shielded from, the Internet. Installing a CyberGuard SG appliance in each network connected PC gives it its own independently manageable, enterprise-grade VPN server and firewall, running in isolation from the host operating system.
Introduction
2
This approach offers an increased measure of protection against internal threats as well as conventional Internet security concerns. You can update, configure and monitor the firewall and VPN connectivity of a workstation or server from any web browser. In the event of a breach, you have complete control over individual PCs' access policies independent of the host PC's operating system, even if the system has been subverted and is denying normal administrator access.
All network filtering and what can be CPU intensive cryptographic processing is handled entirely by the CyberGuard SG appliance. This has the advantage over the traditional approach of a host-based personal software firewall and VPN services of not taxing the host PC's resources.
Bridged mode
By default, the CyberGuard SG PCI appliance operates in bridged mode. This is distinctly different from the NAT/masquerading behavior of the CyberGuard SG gateway appliance range.
In bridged mode, the CyberGuard SG appliance uses two IP addresses. Note that these addresses are both in the same range as the LAN, as no NAT/masquerading is being performed (see the chapter entitled Firewall for more information).
One IP address is used to manage the CyberGuard SG appliance via the Web Management Console web administration pages.
The other is the host PC's IP address, configurable through the host operating system identical to a regular NIC. This is the IP address that other PCs on the LAN see. It should be dynamically (DHCP) or statically configured to use the same gateway, DNS, etc. settings as a regular PC on the LAN.
It is possible to configure the CyberGuard SG PCI appliance to run in NAT mode. This is discussed in the chapter entitled Network Connections.
Secure by default
By default, all CyberGuard SG appliances run a fully secured stateful firewall. This means from the PC that it is plugged into, most network resources are freely accessible. However, any services that the PC provides, such as file shares or web services (e.g. IIS) will not be visible to the general office LAN without further configuration of the CyberGuard SG appliance. For details on how services on the host PC can be made available to the general office LAN, see the section Allowing individual ports in bridged
mode at the end of the chapter entitled Firewall.

2. Getting Started
This chapter provides step-by-step instructions for installing your CyberGuard SG appliance into your network and connecting to the Internet. This is a slightly more detailed version of the printed Quick Install Guide that shipped with your CyberGuard SG appliance.
These instructions assume you have a PC running Microsoft Windows (95/98/Me/ 2000/XP for CyberGuard SG gateway appliances, 2000/XP only for CyberGuard SG PCI appliances). If you are installing a CyberGuard SG gateway appliance, you must have an Ethernet network interface card installed. You may need to be logged in with administrator privileges.
Instructions are not given for other operating systems – refer to your operating system documentation on how to configure your PCs’ network settings using the examples given for Windows PCs as a guide.
If you are setting up a CyberGuard SG gateway appliance (SG300, SG530, SG550, SG570, SG575) proceed to CyberGuard SG gateway appliances below.
If you are setting up a CyberGuard SG PCI appliance (PCI630, PCI635), proceed to CyberGuard SG PCI appliances towards the end of this chapter.
Note
Installing your CyberGuard SG appliance into a well-planned network is easy. However, network planning is outside the scope of this manual. Please take the time to plan your network before installing your CyberGuard SG appliance.
Getting Started

CyberGuard SG Gateway Appliances Set up a PC to Connect to the Web Management Console
The CyberGuard SG appliance ships with initial, static IP settings of:
IP address: 192.168.0.1 Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
Note
The Internet/WAN and DMZ interfaces are by default inactive, i.e. there are no network services such as DHCP in operation, and no IP address is configured.
The CyberGuard SG appliance’s LAN interface will always be initially reachable at
192.168.0.1.
If you attach your CyberGuard SG unit directly to a LAN with an existing DHCP server before performing the initial setup steps described below, the LAN interface will automatically obtain an additional address.
In this case, it will be reachable at both 192.168.0.1 and the address assigned by your LAN DHCP server. The address you use when navigating to the unit (as described Set up the CyberGuard SG appliance's password and LAN connection settings) will be used as the CyberGuard SG unit’s LAN interface address and the other will be discarded.
Your CyberGuard SG appliance will need an IP address suitable for your LAN before it is connected. You may choose to use the CyberGuard SG appliance’s initial network settings as a basis for your LAN settings.
Getting Started
11
Connect the supplied power adapter to the CyberGuard SG appliance.
If you are using the SG530, SG550, SG570 or SG575 model, connect the CyberGuard SG appliance’s LAN Ethernet port directly to your PC’s network interface card using the crossover cable (red or gray).
If you are using the SG300 model, connect your PC’s network interface card directly to one of the ports on the CyberGuard SG appliance’s LAN Ethernet switch using a straight through cable (blue).
Note
It is recommended that you perform the initial setup steps with the CyberGuard SG appliance connected to a single PC only. However, you may choose to connect the CyberGuard SG appliance to the LAN before completing the initial setup steps.
Before doing so, it is critical that you ensure there are no other devices on the LAN with an address of 192.168.0.1
Use the straight through cable (blue) to connect the CyberGuard SG appliance to your LAN’s hub. You may need to use a crossover cable (gray or red) to connect if you wish to connect the SG300 model’s LAN switch to another hub.
Getting Started

Note
For detailed help for each of these options, please refer to the the chapter entitled
Network Connections.
Once the CyberGuard SG appliance’s Internet connection has been set up, click Next, select Reboot and click Next again.
Set up the PCs on your LAN to Access the Internet
Note
If you have changed the CyberGuard SG appliance’s LAN connection settings, it may become uncontactable at this point. This step describes how to set up the PCs on your network to access the CyberGuard SG appliance and the Internet.
If you haven’t already, connect your CyberGuard SG appliance’s LAN Ethernet port directly to your LAN hub using the straight through Ethernet cable (blue).
To access the Internet, the PCs on your network must all be set up to use the CyberGuard SG appliance as their default gateway. This can be done a number of different ways depending on how your LAN is set up.
If your LAN already has a DHCP server (aside from the CyberGuard SG appliance you are setting up), proceed to LAN with a DHCP server.
If your LAN does not have a DHCP server, proceed to LAN with no DHCP server.
If you are not sure, you probably want LAN with no DHCP server.
Getting Started
19
LAN with a DHCP server
Add a lease to your existing DHCP server to reserve the IP address you chose in STEP 3 for the CyberGuard SG appliance’s LAN connection.
If you chose to set the CyberGuard SG appliance’s LAN connection settings using Manual configuration, you may simply remove this address from the pool of available addresses.
Enter this same IP address as the gateway IP address to be handed out by the DHCP server.
Enter this same IP address as the DNS server IP address to be handed out by the DHCP server.
Restart all the PCs on the network (this will reset their gateway and DNS addresses).
Note
The purpose of restarting the computers is to force them to gain a new DHCP lease. Alternatively you can use a utility such as ipconfig to release then renew a lease, or disable and re-enable the network connection.
LAN with no DHCP server
A DHCP server allows PCs to automatically obtain network settings when they start up. If your network does not have a DHCP server, you may either manually set up each PC on your network, or set up the CyberGuard SG appliance's DHCP server.
Note
If you only have several PCs, we suggest manually setting up your network. If you have more PCs, enabling the CyberGuard SG appliance’s DHCP server is more scalable.
Getting Started
