BiGuard 2/10 is designed to be a powerful and flexible network device that is also 
easy to use. With an intuitive web-based configuration, BiGuard 2/10 allows you to 
administer your network via virtually any Java-enabled web browser and is fully 
compatible with Linux, Mac OS, and Windows 98/Me/NT/2000/XP operating 
systems. 
 
The following chapter takes you through the very first steps to configuring your 
network for BiGuard 2/10. Take a look and see how easy it is to get your network up 
and running. 

 

 
BiGuard 2/10 is a flexible and powerful networking device. To simplify the 
configuration process and increase the efficiency of your network, consider the 
following items before setting up your network for the first time: 
 
1. Plan your network 
You may need a fully qualified domain name either for convenience or if you have a 
dynamic IP address. See Chapter 2: Router Applications for more information. 
 
2. Set up your accounts 
Have access to the Internet and locate the Internet Service Provider (ISP) 
configuration information. 
 
3. Determine your network management approach 
BiGuard 2/10 is capable of remote management. However, this feature is not active 
by default. If you reset the device, remote administration must be enabled again. If 
you decide to manage your network remotely, be sure to change the default 
password to something more secure. 
 
4. Prepare to physically connect BiGuard 2/10 to Cable or DSL modems and a 
computer.
