Hardware Installation
Once removed from the box and installed into your server room, the WANO unit requires the
following cable setup:
•
A
crossover cable
from the LAN port on the firewall/router into port ETH2 (WAN1) on the
WANO.
•
A
straight through cable
from port ETH0 (LAN) on the WANO into a port on your
autosensing network switch. If your switch is not autosensing, you will need to use a
crossover cable
.
After cabling up your WANO unit, your network should resemble this simplified network diagram.
Power up the WANO via the physical power switch on the back of the unit and repeat this hardware
installation for each unit purchased.
Pre-configured units should now be running and the acceleration status can be seen by logging in
using Internet Explorer by entering the following into the address bar
https://
[provided.ip.address]
replacing
[provided.ip.address]
with the IP address of the WANO unit.
The initial dashboard should provide real-time acceleration and connection statistics.
If the WANO unit is not accelerating any traffic even when an acceleration tunnel is active, the usual
cause is an incorrect cable type between the unit and the firewall/router or switch. Please check
your cables and correct any mistakes.
For units without any pre-configuration please follow the rest of the Quick Start Guide.
