VPN 3002 Hardware Client Getting Started
OL-2854-01
Preface
VPN 3002 Hardware Client Getting Started provides information to take you from unpacking and
installing the VPN 3002, through configuring the minimal parameters to make it operational (called
Quick Configuration). You can do Quick Configuration from a console with the menu-based
Command-Line Interface, or you can use the HTML-based VPN 3002 Hardware Client Manager with a
browser. This manual describes both methods, and we recommend the latter for ease of use.
Audience
We assume you are an experienced system administrator or network administrator with appropriate
education and training, who knows how to install, configure, and manage internetworking systems.
However, virtual private networks and VPN devices might be new to you. You should be familiar with
Windows system configuration and management, and you should be familiar with Microsoft Internet
Explorer or Netscape Navigator or Communicator browsers.
