Chapter 3  Setting up the security gateway for 

configuration

This chapter describes how to set up the security gateway addressing 
and remote connectivity capabilities. This preliminary configuration is 
performed using a browser on your workstation connected to the security 
gateway’s private port. When the security gateway is initially installed and 
connected to the local LAN, it is provisioned with a default IP address for 
the DHCP server (serving the private port), allowing access to the device 
through a Web browser on a workstation.

The following procedure assumes that the security gateway has been 
physically installed on the network, according to the instructions provided 
in 

.

The security gateway quick setup consists of two basic steps:

Establishing connectivity between a workstation or IP device on your 
local network with the security gateway’s private port 

Setting up the security gateway’s public port to reach the Internet

Through the Web interface, you can assign a static IP address for the 
public port, a password, server addresses, DHCP settings, and a default 
gateway. Once this has been done, the security gateway can be 
completely configured and incorporated into your Virtual private Network 
either by using the Web interface locally, or using Avaya VPNmanager 
from a central location.
