You can also use the RS-232 serial port, and connect a VT100 compatible text terminal or
terminal emulator, using these serial settings:
● 38400 baud
● 8 data bits
● 1 stop bit
● No parity
The Bandura Cyber TIG can be placed into Maintenance Mode at any time from the user
interface, or from the console itself. The Bandura Cyber TIG will enter Maintenance Mode if it
fails a Self Test or if log files fill up and overwrite is disabled.
When the Bandura Cyber TIG is placed into Maintenance Mode, all internet traffic is allowed to
flow through the Bandura Cyber TIG. The Bandura Cyber TIG will not begin to filter connections
until it is taken out of Maintenance Mode.
The recovery console can be used to restore the Bandura Cyber TIG to its factory default
settings, or correct specific items, such as resetting the admin account password.
Please be aware that attaching a networked virtual
keyboard, video and mouse (KVM)
device
or a serial device server to your Bandura Cyber TIG in order to remotely access console mode
may be a security risk.
2.4 Overview of Bandura Cyber TIG Configuration
Your Bandura Cyber TIG comes with three active ethernet network ports. Two of these ports
bridge and filter traffic between your local network and the internet, and the third port is used to
configure and monitor your Bandura Cyber TIG’s operation. The bridging and administration
ports are configured separately.
Your Bandura Cyber TIG has two broad categories of configuration which are largely unrelated
to each other:
● Configuration that filters internet traffic between the bridging ports, via rules, policies,
world maps, exception lists, etc.
● Configuration regarding administrative functions of the Bandura Cyber TIG, including
user accounts, the HTTPS server, SNMP, security certificates, etc.
2.5 Configuring the Bridge Filters
The Bandura Cyber TIG comes with two bridge ports:
● Connects to your internet connection or border gateway
● Connects to your firewall or main interior router
Resource groups are created to control the flow of data through these bridge ports.
