Direct console connection is described in
Section 3.4, “Local Console Port Connection”
In the default NetWall 100 Series configuration, login credentials are enabled for the local
console. These are a username of admin and a password of admin. These credentials come
from the predefined
admin
user, which is also used for SSH and Web Interface access.
Connection to an External Management Computer
For system management using the Web Interface or the CLI via SSH, the firewall's LAN1 Ethernet
interface must be connected, across a network or directly, to an Ethernet interface on an external
management computer.
This connection could be made via a local switch using standard Ethernet cables, as shown in the
illustration below.
Alternatively, direct local Ethernet connection to the LAN1 interface could be done without a
switch by using a crossover cable. However, all the RJ45 interfaces on the NetWall 100 Series
support
Automatic MDI-X
so a crossover cable is not necessary.
Connection to an ISP for Internet Access
For access to the public Internet, another 100 Series Ethernet interface should be selected for
connection to an ISP. In this guide, it will be assumed that the interface WAN1 will be used for
connection to the Internet, although another available interface could be used instead. In the
cOS Core setup wizard, this interface used is always generically referred to as the
WAN
interface.
cOS Core setup for Internet access is discussed further in
Chapter 4, cOS Core Configuration
Note that in the default cOS Core configuration for the NetWall 100 Series, this interface already
has a DHCP client enabled so it can automatically receive an IP addresses from an ISP.
Tip: Connect the Internet before the management computer
If the
WAN1
interface is connected to an ISP before the management computer is
connected to the
LAN1
interface, DNS addresses for resolving URIs will be received from
the ISP and then relayed in the DHCP lease sent to a connecting management
computer.
If the management computer is connected first, it may get its IP assigned by the firewall
with a DHCP lease that will not contain DNS addresses and the lease lifetime will be 24
