a Welcome screen listing the basic configuration steps is displayed
Note: The computer must have an IP address in the same network range
(192.168.0.x) as the appliance. Alternatively, you can use the
arping
command to set
the IP address (refer to the
User Manual
or online
Knowledge Base FAQ
for details).
The appliance also has DHCP client enabled by default. It will automatically accept any
network IP address assigned by any DHCP server on your network, and will then
respond at both 192.168.0.1 and its DHCP address.

to change settings for the appliance itself (and for connected serial ports). Similarly
using the Forwarding & Network menu on System: Firewall you can permit IP
access between devices on Network Interface and Management LAN.
