Disable HTTP Proxy

disabled. This is so that your browser can view the Barricade’s HTML
configuration pages. Determine which browser you use and refer to
“Internet Explorer” on page 3-4.
Obtain IP Settings from Your Barricade
Now that you have configured your computer to connect to your
Barricade, it needs to obtain new network settings. By releasing old DHCP
IP settings and renewing them with settings from your Barricade, you can
