3.2 Quick Setup

STEP 1:
Connect both the Administrator’s PC and the LAN port of the Content Security
Gateway to a hub or switch. Make sure there is a link light on the hub/switch
for both connections. The CS-2000 has an embedded web server used for
management and configuration. Use a web browser to display the configurations of
the Content Security Gateway (such as Internet Explorer 4 (or above) or Netscape
4.0 (or above) with full java script support). The default IP address of the Content
Security Gateway is 192.168.1.1 with a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0. Therefore,
the IP address of the Administrator PC must be in the range between 192.168.1.2–
192.168.1.254.

By default, the CS-2000 is shipped with its DHCP Server function enabled. This
means the client computers on the LAN network including the Administrator PC can
set their TCP/IP settings to automatically obtain an IP address from the Content
Security Gateway.

The following table is a list of private IP addresses. These addresses may not be
used as a WAN IP address.

10.0.0.0 ~ 10.255.255.255

172.16.0.0 ~ 172.31.255.255

192.168.0.0 ~ 192.168.255.255

STEP 2:
Once the Administrator’s PC has an IP address on the same network as the Content
Security Gateway, open up an Internet web browser and type in http://192.168.1.1
in the address bar.
