Generally, the WAN and serial ports provide connectivity to an outside network or the Internet, while the
nodes that you are protecting connect directly to the LAN ports. See the examples in Chapter 3 of the
Symantec Gateway Security 400 Series Administrator’s Guide for more information.
All the appliances have one serial port. If you use a modem and dial-up
connection to provide Internet connectivity, you connect the modem to the
serial port.
Refer to the back panel location numbers in Figure 2-1 and Figure 2-2 when performing these steps.
To connect your appliance
1In the WAN port (3) (WAN 1 on model 460 or 460R), plug in the RJ-45 connector from the outside
network or your Internet connection.
2For a dial-up Internet connection, connect the modem to the serial port (5).
See the Symantec Gateway Security 400 Series Administrator’s Guide. A serial modem cable is not
included.
3In one of the LAN ports (2), plug in the RJ-45 connector from a node that the appliance will protect.
The LAN ports are not ordered; you can plug any cable from a node into any of the LAN ports. The node
will be assigned an IP address by the DHCP server by default.
4Repeat step 3 for up to four different nodes on models 420 and 440 or eight different nodes on models
460 and 460R.
Switches can be connected to any of the LAN ports to connect additional nodes beyond the 4 or 8 node
limit.

About the Setup Wizard
Chapter
3
The Setup Wizard guides you through the steps required to connect your Symantec Gateway Security 400
Series WAN port (WAN 1 on models 460 and 460R) to the Internet, a corporate network, or any other
external private or public network.
Understanding connection types
To connect the appliance to an outside or internal network, you must understand your connection type.
First, determine if you have a dial-up or dedicated account. Typical dial-up accounts are analog (through a
normal phone line connected to an external modem) and ISDN (through a special phone line). Typical
dedicated accounts are broadband cable, DSL, T1/E1, or T3 connected to a terminal adaptor.
Table 3-1 and Table 3-2 describe the supported connection types, including the following information:
■The Connection type column correlates to the option button you click on the Main Setup tab or in the
Setup Wizard.
■The Services column defines the types of accounts or protocols that are associated with the connection
type.
■The Network termination types column lists the physical devices that a particular connection type
typically uses to connect to the Internet or a network.
16 Running the Setup Wizard
Understanding connection types
Once you have determined your specific type of connection, refer to the appropriate configuration section
later in this chapter.
Note: Connect only RJ-45 cables to the WAN ports.

DHCP
The following connection methods are supported by Symantec Gateway Security 400 Series:
■DHCP
■DSL
■PPPoE
■PPTP
■Static IP address
■Dial-up/ISDN
Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) automates the network configuration of computers. It lets a
network with many clients extract configuration information from a single DHCP server. In the case of a
dedicated Internet account, the users are the clients extracting information from the ISP’s DHCP server,
and IP addresses are only assigned to connected accounts.
The account you have with your ISP may use DHCP to allocate IP addresses to you. Account types that
frequently use DHCP are broadband cable and DSL. ISPs may authenticate broadband cable connections
using the MAC address or physical address of your computer or gateway.
DSL
PPPoE
Understanding connection types
17Running the Setup Wizard
If you are using the security gateway on a pre-existing broadband cable connection, you can change the
appliance to match the existing MAC address. If this is a new connection, you can obtain the physical
address in the Setup Wizard for your ISP.
DSL ISPs may provide Internet service by allocating IP addresses by DHCP, or they may assign your
account a static IP address.
DSL ISPs also use Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet (PPPoE) or Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol
(PPTP) technologies for user authentication of network connections.
Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet (PPPoE) is used by many Asymmetrical Digital Subscriber Line
(ASDL) providers. It is a specification for connecting many users on a network to the Internet through a
single dedicated medium, such as a DSL account.
You can specify whether you connect or disconnect your PPPoE account manually or automatically. This is
useful to verify connectivity.
You can configure the appliance to connect only when an Internet request is made from a user on the LAN
(for example, browsing to a Web site) and disconnect when the connection is idle (unused). This feature is
useful if your ISP charges on a per-usage time basis.
You can use multiple logins (if your ISP account allows multi-session PPPoE) to obtain additional IP
addresses for the WAN. These are called PPPoE sessions. The login may be the same user name and
password as the main session or may be different for each session, depending on your ISP. Up to five
sessions or IP addresses are allowed for models 420 and 440 and up to three sessions for each WAN port on
models 460 and 460R. LAN hosts are bound to a session on the Computers tab in the SGMI.
PPTP
Note: Multiple IP addresses on a WAN port are only supported for PPPoE connections.
By default, all settings are associated with Session 1. For multi-session PPPoE Accounts, configure each
session individually. If you have multiple PPPoE accounts, assign each one to a different session in the
SGMI.
Before configuring the WAN ports to use a PPPoE account, gather the following information:
■User name and password
All PPPoE accounts require user names and passwords. Get this information from your ISP before
configuring PPPoE.
■Static IP address
You may have purchased or are assigned a static IP address for the PPPoE account.
Point-to-Point-Tunneling Protocol (PPTP) is a protocol that enables secure data transfer from a client to a
server by creating a tunnel over a TCP/IP-based network. Symantec Gateway Security 400 Series
appliances act as a PPTP access client (PAC) when you connect to a PPTP Network Server (PNS), generally
with your ISP.
Some ADSL ISPs charge for connection time. The Symantec Gateway Security 400 Series reduces these
costs by only connecting to your ISP when you use the Internet, and disconnecting when you are idle.
Before beginning PPTP configuration, gather the following information:
■PPTP server IP address
IP address of the PPTP server at the ISP.
18 Running the Setup Wizard
Understanding connection types
Static IP address
■Static IP address
IP address assigned to your account.
■Account information
User name and password to log in to the account.
When you get an account with an ISP, you may have the option to purchase a static (permanent) IP address.
This lets you run a server, such as a Web or FTP server, because the address remains the same, all of the
time. Any type account (dial-up or broadband) can have a static IP address.
The appliance forwards any DNS lookup requests to the specified DNS server for name resolution. The
appliance supports up to three DNS servers. When you specify multiple DNS servers, they are used in
sequence. For example, after the first server is used, the next request is forwarded to the second server and
so on.
If you have a static IP address with your ISP or are using the appliance behind another security gateway
device, select Static IP and DNS for your connection type. You can specify your static IP address and the IP
addresses of the DNS servers you want to use for name resolution.
Before configuring the appliance to connect with your static IP account, gather the following information:
■Static IP address, netmask, and default gateway addresses
Contact your ISP or IT department for this information.
■DNS addresses
You must specify the IP address for at least one, and up to three, DNS servers. Contact your ISP or IT
department for this information. You do not need DNS IP address entries for dynamic Internet
accounts or accounts where a DHCP server assigns the IP addresses.
If you have a static IP address with PPPoE, configure the appliance for PPPoE.
See “PPPoE” on page 17.
Dial-up/ISDN
There are two basic types of dial-up accounts: analog and ISDN. Analog uses a modem that connects to a
regular telephone line (using an RJ-11 connector). ISDN is a digital dial-up account type that uses a special
telephone line.
On the Symantec Gateway Security 400 Series appliance, you can use a dial-up account as your primary
connection to the Internet, or as a backup to your dedicated account. In backup mode, the appliance
automatically dials the ISP if the dedicated connection fails. The appliance re-engages the dedicated
account when it is stable; usually 30 to 60 seconds.
You can configure a primary and a backup dial-up account. You can also connect or disconnect your
account manually. You may configure a backup dial-up account if your primary dedicated account fails.
First, you must connect the modem to the appliance. Then, you use the SGMI to configure the dial-up
account.
Running the Setup Wizard
You must use an external modem for dial-up accounts. You connect both analog and ISDN modems to the
appliance through the serial port on the rear panel. Figure 3-1 shows the serial port on the rear panel of the
model 420 and 440 appliances. Figure 3-2 shows the serial port on the rear panel of the model 460 and 460R
appliances.

documentation
You may need to consult your modem’s documentation for modem command or model
information.
Running the Setup Wizard
The Setup Wizard runs the first time that you browse to the appliance. You can also run it again to
reconfigure the appliance by clicking WAN/ISP in the left pane of the SGMI, and then clicking Run Setup
Wizard on the Main Setup tab in the right pane.
Using the SGMI, you can change any information you enter in the Setup Wizard, except the language. You
can change the language by running the Setup Wizard again, and selecting a different language.
You cannot change the WAN connectivity information from the SESA Console.
Before you begin
Before proceeding with the Setup Wizard, plug in the cable from your modem which is connected to the
Internet or from your intranet into the WAN port (WAN 1 on models 460 and 460R) on the back of your
appliance. After you plug in the appropriate cables, check that the Link LED (on the WAN port itself) is
illuminated, restart your computer, and then begin the Setup Wizard.
If the WAN port is active (has an active Internet or intranet connection plugged in to it), the Setup Wizard
guides you through configuring LiveUpdate and changing your administrator password. If the WAN port is
not active, the Setup Wizard guides you through entering ISP-specific connection parameters.
20 Running the Setup Wizard
Running the Setup Wizard
LiveUpdate lets customers keep their Symantec products up-to-date with the latest revision. You should
run LiveUpdate as soon as your appliance is connected to the Internet. If new LiveUpdate packages are
available, the appliance restarts after the package is downloaded and applied, but your configuration is
preserved.
Note: You should configure the LiveUpdate service for automatic updates. This ensures that the appliance
always provides the highest level of security available.
Starting the Setup Wizard
Configuring the appliance using the Setup Wizard consists of three parts: starting the Setup Wizard,
configuring for your connection type, and then completing the Setup Wizard.
Note: If your connection type is DHCP and the appliance is connected to the WAN, when you start the Setup
Wizard the appliance automatically detects and configures DHCP for you.
To start the Setup Wizard
1Install the appliance according to the instructions in “Installing the Symantec Gateway Security 400
Series” on page 11.

About developing a security plan
This appendix provides basic guidelines for developing an overall security plan. Developing a security plan
is the first step in your installation process and helps you to collect the information needed to install
Symantec Gateway Security 400 Series.
Developing a security plan consists of three basic steps:
■Defining your security policy
■Educating your users
■Filling out worksheets
Defining your security policy
Before configuring your security gateway, you must understand exactly what network resources and
services you want to protect. It is crucial to have a carefully designed network security policy to guard the
valuable resources and information of your organization.
Ideally, you should capture your security policy in a document that describes your organization’s network
security needs and concerns. Creating this document is the first step in building an effective overall
network security system and must be done prior to installation.
Your security plan details your security plan policy implementation. Based on the security concerns and
trade-offs of your overall policy, your security plan should contain a set of tasks. One of these tasks should
consist of establishing procedures and rules for access to resources located on your network. These
resources include:
■Host computers and servers
■Wo rk s ta t io n s
■Connection devices (gateways, routers, bridges, and repeaters)
■Terminal servers and remote access servers
26 Developing a pre-installation security plan
Defining your security policy
■Networking and applications software
■Information in files and databases
Symantec Gateway Security 400 Series is the main tool for enforcing security, letting you define a security
policy that allows or denies access to specific resources throughout your network.
Before writing your security plan
Before you write rules to implement your plan using the Symantec Gateway Security 400 Series
Administrator’s Guide and Symantec Advanced Manager and Symantec Event Manager Administrator’s
Guide, answer the following questions:
■How many points of entry exist into your network?
■A security gateway defends a single point of entry. Every point of entry should be protected by a
security gateway.
■A Virtual Private Network (VPN) server also defends a single point of entry. You must decide what
access the VPN server is going to provide for resources that exist behind the security gateway.
■Any desktop or laptop connected to the network is a potential point of entry.
■What types of services do you want to allow for internal users?
■To what hosts, subnets, and users do you want to allow these services?
■What external users will you allow to access your network? Which hosts or subnets will you allow them
to access? During what hours? For what period of time?
■What types of services do you want to allow for external users?
■What type of authentication will you require for external users? (Symantec recommends strong
authentication for any access from public networks.)
■If you are implementing VPN tunnels between internal and external hosts, what types of traffic will be
allowed over these tunnels?
■Will you place your Web server inside or outside of your protected network?
Becoming security-conscious
Developing and implementing a security plan for the security gateway you are installing should be only one
part of your overall security policy. The security gateway offers the best protection against uninvited entry
into your network. However, the security gateway cannot guard against entry by people who pirate
passwords, any more than a sophisticated lock can stop a thief in possession of the right key.
Formulate goals
Take the time to formulate the specific goals of your security plan. Identify the resources you are
protecting and all possible threats. Protecting your resources from unauthorized external users may be
only one of your goals. You may also need to limit internal access to certain systems to specific users and
groups, within specific time periods. You will need to define these users and groups for the firewall and how
to configure special services to be passed through these systems. Symantec Gateway Security 400 Series
Administrator’s Guide explains how to define users and user groups.
Review issues
Review your organization’s specific issues in detail before you configure the server. Your network’s
security depends on planning sound policies, implementing them carefully, and verifying that they work as
intended.
Educating users
Your overall site policy involves a numbers of tasks. Of these, user education is critical. Publish your
company’s security policy. Make sure that your users are informed of the determination of would-be
invaders and the sophistication of available password guessing programs. Make sure that they understand
how common security breaches are and how costly they can be. These facts alone dictate that users should
be encouraged to select passwords that are difficult to crack and to change passwords regularly.
Involving the user community
When developing the details of your security plan, you should solicit the input of group managers or
leaders on what services they require, for what users, and so on. Explain to users the need for network
security to protect private information, intellectual property, and your business plans.
Notifying affected users
Before implementing policies, notify the user community of your proposed policies. Doing so in advance
can prevent unnecessary frustration on the part of your users.
For instance, if you plan to pass all email through a dedicated server, or if external users will be disallowed
from accessing certain systems by Telnet, consider passing these changes along before implementation.
Consulting users prior to implementation may save you the time needed to fine-tune those policies later.
Educating users
27Developing a pre-installation security plan
Taking a pro-active stance
Again, keep in mind that configuring a set of authorization rules on the security gateway is just one piece of
your overall security plan. To be effective, this plan should also include:
■Physical security of key systems (especially the security gateway)
■Security risk training for users
■Guidelines on passwords
■Proprietary information policies
■Network planning
Filling out worksheets
Use the following set of policy planning worksheets to aid in the planning process. Use these worksheets to
help implement the specific tasks of your security plan and to assist you during the installation process.
Defining your organization
Begin by defining your organization. Here is where you explore your existing security policy, if any. Note
who will be assigned as administrators, types of authentication, and how your administrators will be
contacted.
