After Successful Management Server Contact
After you see a notification that Management Server contact has
succeeded or the appliance has rebooted itself after automatic
configuration with a USB stick, the firewall engine installation is
complete and the firewall is ready to receive a policy. In a while, the
firewall’s status changes in the Management Client from
Unknown
to
No
Policy Installed
, and the connection state is
Connected
indicating that
the Management Server can connect to the node.
The next step is creating a security policy and installing it on the engine.
See the
Firewall/VPN Installation Guide
for basic instructions or the
online help of the Management Client for detailed instructions.
Caution –
When using the command prompt, use the
reboot
command to reboot and
halt
command to shut down the node. Do
not use the init command. You can also reboot the node using the
Management Client.
