License

The security appliances are delivered with a 30-day trial version. During or after
the trial period, you can activate the full license you purchased from your Sophos
partner by creating an account at https://myutm.sophos.com, activating the provided
activation and upgrade keys, and uploading the created license file into your appliance.

2. Mount and connect the device

Connect the ports to the internal and external networks

1. Connect the E0/LAN port via a hub or switch to the internal network. For this
purpose, please use the RJ45 Ethernet cable of the scope of supply. Note that your
administration client PC must also be connected to this network.

2. Connect the E1/WAN port to the external network. The connection to the WAN
depends on the type of Internet access.

The UTM appliances are shipped with the following default settings:

Ethernet Port IP Address Zone

E0/LAN 192.168.0.1/255.255.255.0 LAN

Default Gateway DNS Proxy DHCP Service

None Enabled Disabled

Note: On SG 105(w)/115(w) the SFP port is shared with RJ45 Ethernet Port E3 and
takes precedence over RJ45 port in case you connect cables in both ports at the same
time.

Mount the appliance to the rack

If you want to mount the device within a rack please use the optionally available
rackmount kit for this device.

Workstation connection properties:

IP address: Any address in the range 192.168.0.2
through 192.168.0.254

Netmask: Enter 255.255.255.0
Standard gateway: Enter the IP address of

the appliance’s internal network card E0/LAN:

192.168.0.1
DNS server: Enable this option and enter the IP

address of the internal network card E0/LAN:

192.168.0.1

3. Power Up the Device

Connect the power adapter(s) and turn on the device

Connect the provided power adapter to connector 1 on the back of the device. In order
to increase redundancy you can connect an optionally available second power adapter
of the same type to power connector 2.

Turn the device on. The power switch is on the back of the device and is placed next to
the power connection.

During boot up the Status LED on the front will blink green. Once the device has booted
completely the Status LED will turn to solid green.

4. Configure the device

Use your browser to make the initial connection to the WebAdmin GUI

You will need to configure a workstation with the necessary LAN properties to access
WebAdmin. You can change these settings later to match your existing network. The
location of the menu for these settings depends on the operating system of your client.

Example: With Windows 7, the menu can be found under Start >> Control Panel >>
Network and Sharing Center

Start the browser and enter the management IP address of the appliance:

https://192.168.0.1:4444

Accept the security notice by clicking OK (Mozilla Firefox) or Yes (MS Internet Explorer).
For configuration you can follow the initial setup wizard described in the WebAdmin

Quick Start Guide** or cancel it and perform a manual setup (see the UTM
Administration Guide*).
