Quick Setup

5.1 Web Configuration

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-500 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.

If the company's LAN IP Address is not subnet of 192.168.1.0, (i.e. LAN IP Address is
172.16.0.1), then the Administrator must change his/her PC IP address to be within the
same range of the LAN subnet (i.e. 172.16.0.2). Reboot the PC if necessary.

By default, the CS-500 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 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.

A pop-up screen will appear and prompt for a username and password. A username and
password is required to connect to the Content Security Gateway. Enter the default login
username and password of Administrator (see below).

Username: admin

Password: admin

Click OK.
