Chapter 2 - Installation
Introduction
RF650VPN installation is divided into three parts:
·
Hardware installation and cabling
·
Software initial configuration
·
Software configuration
Additional WebAdmin information is provided in the online Help. The Help function is opened by clicking
the online Help button.
Note: Before installing, you should first plan your network and decide which computer is to have access
to which services. This simplifies the configuration and saves you a lot of time that you would otherwise
need for corrections and adjustments.
Note: Please print this document and use it to fill in your specific RouteFinder and network information
(e.g., the IP address used, e-mail lists, etc.). Enter the configuration information (e.g., the Default
Gateway and other IP addresses used) into the appropriate field of the Address Table later in this
chapter, and keep for future reference.
Administrator requirements to be met before installing the RF650VPN software:
·
Correct configuration of the Default Gateway
·
An HTTPS capable browser (e.g., Microsoft Internet Explorer 4.0 or higher, or Netscape
Communicator 4.0 or higher)
·
JavaScript and Cascading Style Sheets must be activated
·
No proxies may be entered in the browser
·
If Secure Shell (SSH) is to be used, an SSH client program is required (e.g., PuTTY in Windows
2000, or the bundled SSH client in most Linux packages).
