wizard to set up your WatchGuard SSL device.

your browser. It is safe to ignore the warning (Internet Explorer) or to add a certificate exception (Mozilla

Firefox).

• In the wizard, you must decide on the configuration mode that best suits your

network. These diagrams show the two configuration modes. For more information on
