A set of keys is packed in the shipping container. These are
universal keys that fit any HP VPN device. Keep the keys in a safe
place. It is not necessary to lock the device.
In preparation for configuring your new VPN device, you must
complete the following tasks:
1.
Insert the flash card into the device.
2.
Connect the supplied DB-9 cable to your device.
3.
Set power supply voltage.
4.
Turn on the device.
5.
Create a console window with your terminal emulation
program.
When the VPN device is in a factory-default state, the only way
to communicate with it is through the console cable. You run the
console cable between the serial port on the device and the
serial port on the computer on which you want to have the
console window.
After you make the physical connection, you open a console
window so you can run the setup script to configure the new
device.
