Preparing Your Network

C-1

This appendix describes how to prepare your network to connect to the Internet through the 
FVL328 Prosafe High Speed VPN Firewall and how to verify the readiness of broadband Internet 
service from an Internet service provider (ISP).

You need to prepare these three things before you can connect your firewall to the Internet:

1.

A computer properly connected to the firewall as explained below.

2.

Active Internet service such as that provided by a DSL or Cable modem account.

3.

The Internet Service Provider (ISP) configuration information for your account.

The FVL328 Firewall connects to your LAN via twisted-pair Ethernet cables.

To use the FVL328 Firewall on your network, each computer must have an installed Ethernet 
Network Interface Card (NIC) and an Ethernet cable. If the computer will connect to your network 
at 100 Mbps, you must use a Category 5 (CAT5) cable such as the one provided with your firewall.

The broadband modem must provide a standard 10 Mbps 10BASE-T or 100 Mbps 100BASE-T 
Ethernet interface.

Note: If an ISP technician configured your computer during the installation of a 
broadband modem, or if you configured it using instructions provided by your ISP, you 
may need to copy the current configuration information for use in the configuration of 
your firewall. Write down this information before reconfiguring your computers. Refer
