Quick Setup
This guide walks you through the installation of your CyberGuard SG
appliance. Installing the CyberGuard SG appliance into a well planned
network is quick and easy. However, network planning and design is
outside the scope of this guide. Please take some time to plan your
network prior to installing your CyberGuard SG appliance.
To add the CyberGuard SG appliance to your local area network (LAN),
the basic steps are:
Unpack your CyberGuard SG appliance
Set up a PC to connect to the Web Management Console
Set up your CyberGuard SG appliance’s password and LAN
connection settings
Set up your CyberGuard SG appliance’s Internet connection
settings
Set up the PCs on your LAN to access the Internet
Occasionally you will see a box like the following, which contains
important technical information:
Product Registration
Note: Example.
System Requirements
These steps assume that you have a PC running Microsoft Windows
(95/98/Me/2000/XP) with an Ethernet network interface card installed.
You may need to be logged in with administrator privileges.
For a more a thorough description of configuring the CyberGuard SG
appliance, please refer to the User Manual on your CyberGuard SG CD
(\doc\UserManual.pdf).
For troubleshooting and answers to frequently asked questions, contact
your network administrator or consult the Knowledge Base at:

STEP 1 Unpack the CyberGuard SG appliance
Check the following items were included with your CyberGuard SG
appliance:
Power adapter
CyberGuard SG CD
2 Ethernet cables (1 blue straight through cable and 1 gray or
red crossover cable or 2 blue straight through cables)
2 Antenna
Step 1a Assemble the antenna onto the SG565
Before powering on the SG565 the antenna must be fitted.
Screw the two antenna onto the terminals ANT A and ANT B at the rear
of the device
Warning: To comply with the FCC and ANSI C95.1 RF exposure limits, it is recommended for the
Cyberguard SG565 device be installed so as to provide a separation distance of at least 20 cm (8 inches)
from all persons and that the antenna must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other
antenna or radio transmitter. It is recommended that the user limit exposure time if the antenna is
positioned closer than 20 cm (8 inches).
Step 1b Power on the SG565
On the rear panel of the CyberGuard SG appliance you will see network
(LAN 4 ports), Internet (Internet/ WAN) and serial ports, a Reset/Erase
button, antenna outlets and a power inlet.
The front panel of the CyberGuard SG appliance contains activity LEDs
(lights) that vary slightly between models. These provide information on
the operating status of your CyberGuard SG appliance.
Note: Power is ON when power is applied (use only the power adapter packaged with the
unit).
System/Heart Beat/TST flashes when the CyberGuard SG appliance is running.
The SG565 may also initially have all other front panel LEDs flashing.
If these LEDs do not behave in this manner before your CyberGuard SG appliance has been
attached to the network, you may need to perform a factory reset. Press the black
Reset/Erase button on rear panel twice within two seconds to restore factory default
settings. If the LEDs are still not flashing after 30 seconds, you may need to contact
customer support.
STEP 2 Set up a PC to connect to the Web
Management Console
The CyberGuard SG appliance ships with initial, static IP settings of:
LAN IP address: 192.168.0.1
LAN 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.
If you attach the CyberGuard SG unit’s LAN port directly to a LAN with
an existing DHCP server, or a PC running a DHCP service, before
performing the initial setup steps described below, it will automatically
obtain an additional address. Your CyberGuard SG appliance will still
be reachable at 192.168.0.1.
However, it is strongly recommended that you perform the initial setup
steps 2, 3 and 4 before connecting your CyberGuard SG appliance to
your LAN.
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.
Connect the supplied power adapter to the CyberGuard SG appliance.
Connect the CyberGuard SG appliance’s LAN Ethernet port directly to
your PC’s network interface card using the crossover cable (red or gray).
Next, you must modify your PC’s network settings to enable it to
communicate with the CyberGuard SG appliance.

Note: If there is more than one existing network connection, select the
one corresponding to the network interface card to which the
CyberGuard SG appliance is attached.
Select Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) and click Properties (or in 95/98/Me,
TCP/IP -> your network card name if there are multiple entries) and
click Properties.
STEP 3 Set up the CyberGuard SG appliance’s
password and LAN connection settings
Launch Internet Explorer (or your preferred web browser) and navigate
to 192.168.0.1.
The Web Management Console will display.
Select Quick Setup Wizard from the center of the page.
You will be prompted to log in. Enter the initial user name and password
for the CyberGuard SG appliance:
User name: root
Password: default
Note: If you are unable to connect to the Management Console at
192.168.0.1, or the initial username and password are not accepted,
press the black Reset button on the CyberGuard SG appliance’s rear
panel twice, wait 20 – 30 seconds, and try again. Pressing this button
twice within 2 seconds returns the CyberGuard SG appliance to its
factory default settings.
Enter and confirm a password for your CyberGuard SG appliance. This
is the password for the user root, the main administrative user account
on the CyberGuard SG appliance. It is therefore important that you
choose a password that is hard to guess, and keep it safe.
Select Use the following IP address and enter the following details:
IP address: 192.168.0.100
Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
Default gateway: 192.168.0.1
Select Use the following DNS server addresses and enter:
Preferred DNS server: 192.168.0.1
Note: If you wish to retain your existing IP settings for this network
connection, click Advanced and Add the secondary IP address of
192.168.0.100, subnet mask 255.255.255.0.
The new password will take effect immediately, and you will be prompted
to enter it when completing the next step.
The Quick Setup Wizard will display.

Hostname: You may change the name your CyberGuard SG appliance
knows itself by. This is not generally necessary.
Manual configuration: Select this to manually specify your CyberGuard
SG appliance’s LAN connection settings.
Skip: LAN already configured: Select this if you wish to use the
CyberGuard SG appliance’s initial network settings (IP address
192.168.0.1 and subnet mask 255.255.255.0) as a basis for your LAN
settings. You may skip to STEP 4.
Obtain LAN IP address from a DHCP server on LAN: It is
recommended that you statically configure your CyberGuard SG
appliance’s LAN connection settings rather than rely on an existing
DHCP server. However, you may select this if you have an existing
DHCP server that you wish to have automatically configure your
CyberGuard SG appliance’s LAN connection settings. You may skip to
STEP 4.
Note: This page will only display if you previously selected Manual
configuration. Otherwise skip to STEP 4.
Enter an IP address and Subnet mask for your CyberGuard SG
appliance’s LAN connection. You may choose to use the CyberGuard
SG appliance’s initial network settings if you are sure no other PC or
network device already has the address of 192.168.0.1.
The IP address will later be used as the gateway address for the PCs
on your LAN. To gain access through this gateway, the PCs on your
LAN must have an IP address within the bounds of the subnet described
by the CyberGuard SG appliance’s IP address and subnet mask (e.g.
using the CyberGuard SG appliance’s initial network settings,
192.168.0.2 – 192.168.0.254).
Take note of this IP address and subnet mask, as you will need them
later on.

STEP 4 Set up the CyberGuard SG appliance’s Internet
connection settings
First, attach your CyberGuard SG appliance to your modem device or
Internet connection medium. If necessary, give the modem device some
time to power up.
STEP 5 Set up the PCs on your LAN to access the
Internet
If you haven’t already, connect your CyberGuard SG appliance’s LAN
port directly to your LAN hub using the straight through Ethernet cable
(blue).
Note: if you are setting up the SG565, you may also connect PCs
directly to its LAN switch.
To access the Internet, the PCs on your LAN 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 has a DHCP server already, proceed to STEP 5A.
If your LAN does not
If you are not sure, you probably want STEP 5B.
have a DHCP server, proceed to STEP 5B.
Select your Internet connection type and click Next.
If connecting using a cable modem, select the appropriate ISP. Choose
Generic cable modem provider if unsure.
If connecting using a regular analog modem, enter the details provided
by your ISP.
If connecting using an ADSL modem, select Auto detect ADSL
connection type and enter the details provided by your ISP. If auto
detection fails and you are unsure of your ADSL connection type,
contact your ISP.
If you have a direct connection to the Internet (e.g. a leased line), enter
the IP settings provided by your ISP.
Note: For detailed help for each of these options, please refer to the
User Manual.
Once the CyberGuard SG appliance’s Internet connection has been set
up, click Next, select Reboot and click Next again.
Note: If you changed the CyberGuard SG appliance’s LAN connection
settings in STEP 3, it may become uncontactable at this point. The next
step describes how to set up the PCs on your network to access the
CyberGuard SG appliance and the Internet.
STEP 5A LAN with a DHCP server
Add a lease to your existing DHCP server to reserve an IP address 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 PCs 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.

STEP 5B 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.
To manually set up each Windows PC on your network:
Click Start -> (Settings ->) Control Panel and double click Network
Connections (or in 95/98/Me, double click Network).
If presented with multiple connections, right click on Local Area
Connection (or appropriate network connection) and select Properties.
Select Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) and click Properties (or in 95/98/Me,
TCP/IP -> [your network card name] if there are multiple entries).
Enter the following details:
IP address is an IP address that is part of the same subnet range
as the CyberGuard SG appliance’s LAN connection (e.g. if using
the default settings, 192.168.0.2 – 192.168.0.254).
Subnet mask is the subnet mask of the CyberGuard SG
appliance’s LAN connection.
Default gateway is the IP address of the CyberGuard SG
appliance’s LAN connection.
Preferred DNS server is the IP address of the CyberGuard SG
appliance’s LAN connection.
Click OK (or in 95/98/Me, Add then OK, reboot the PC if prompted to do
so).
Perform these steps for each PC on your network.
Alternatively, to activate your CyberGuard SG appliance's DHCP server:
Launch Internet Explorer (or your preferred web browser) and navigate
to the IP address of the CyberGuard SG appliance’s LAN connection.
Note: If you changed your CyberGuard SG appliance’s LAN connection
settings from its default settings in STEP 3, it may be uncontactable at
this point. If so, manually set up a single PC as described at the
beginning of STEP 5B before continuing.
The Web Management Console will display.
Select DHCP Server from the Networking menu.
Click Add Server and configure the DHCP server with the following
details:
Gateway Address is the IP address of the CyberGuard SG
appliance’s LAN connection, or leave it blank.
DNS Address is the IP address of the CyberGuard SG
appliance’s LAN connection, or leave it blank.
WINS Address (optional) is the IP address of any existing WINS
server on your LAN.
Default Lease Time and Maximum Lease Time should generally
be left at their default values.
Initial Dynamic IP Address Range is a range of free IP
addresses on your LAN’s subnet for the CyberGuard SG
appliance to hand out to PCs on your LAN.
Note: For a detailed description of configuring DHCP Server Settings,
please refer to the User Manual.
Each PC on your LAN must now be set up to use DHCP. For each PC
on your LAN:
Click Start -> (Settings ->) Control Panel and double click Network
Connections (or in 95/98/Me, double click Network).
You are now finished.
