Configuring Initial Settings by Using the Setup Wizard
Jul 15, 2013
To configure the NetScaler Gateway appliance by using the Setup Wizard in the configuration utility, you need a computer
that is configured on the same network as the appliance. You also need a minimum of Java Runtime Environment (JRE)
version 1.6. You can use the Setup Wizard to configure the following initial settings on the appliance:
System IP address and subnet mask
Mapped IP address and subnet mask
Host name
Default gateway
Licenses
Important: Before running the Setup Wizard, you should download your licenses from the Citrix web site and put them in a
location on your computer or another device where you can access them from your web browser during configuration.
Note: When you finish installing and configuring the initial settings on the NetScaler Gateway appliance by using the
command-line interface, when you log on to the configuration utility for the first time, the First-time configuration appears
if the following conditions are not met:
You did not install a license on the appliance.
You did not configure a subnet or mapped IP address.
If the default IP address of the appliances is 192.168.100.1.
For more information about the first time configuration, see
