The RouteFinder VPN is designed to install either on a desktop or in a standard EIA 19" rack and is shipped with the

RouteFinder the rack enclosure.  Proceed to the cabling procedure. 
 

Cabling your RouteFinder VPN involves making the proper Power, DMZ, WAN and LAN connections as illustrated and 
described below. 

 

 

Using an RJ-45 Ethernet cable, connect the DMZ RJ-45 jack to the DMZ device or network (Optional – for example, 
a Voice over IP gateway). 

Using an RJ-45 Ethernet cable, connect the WAN RJ-45 jack to the device for the external network. 

Using an RJ-45 Ethernet cable, connect the LAN RJ-45 jack to the internal network switch or hub. 

 Use a cross-over Ethernet cable if connecting to a single device. 

With the RF760 or RF660 RouteFinder VPN Power switch in the off (

Ο) position and using the supplied power cord, 

plug one end into the RouteFinder VPN connect power plug and the other end into a live power outlet.  

Note: 

The status LED blinks continuously after power-up. 

Wait for the RouteFinder VPN to beep five times, indicating that it is ready to be configured with a Web browser. 

 Never switch off the RouteFinder VPN Power until after you have performed the Shutdown
