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

3. Power Up the Device

Connect the power cable and turn on the device

Connect the device to the power supply using the power cable(s). Turn the device
on. The power switch is on the back of the device and is placed next to the power
connection. Once the device has booted completely, you’ll hear an acoustic signal:
five beeps in a row.

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*).
