After Upgrading to Version 6.0.2
After upgrading to version 6.0.2 of the firmware,

the new install wizard for initial configuration.
2
Restore factory default settings. Click the
Tools
label,
the
Configuration
tab and then the
Restore
button.
3
Restart the unit.
4
The unit will display the Firewall Installation Wizard.
Perform initial configuration.
5
After the unit has restarted, enter any additional
configuration using the Web interface.
Failure to follow this procedure may result in an
invalid configuration.
