Netgear FVX538v1 – ProSafe VPN Firewall Dual WAN with 8-Port 10/100 and 1 Gigabit LAN Port Switch 参照マニュアル

Network Planning for Dual WAN Ports

B-3

To use the VPN 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 FVX538 includes a built-in Web Configuration Manager. To access the configuration menus 
on the FVX538, your must use a Java-enabled Web browser program that supports HTTP uploads 
such as Microsoft Internet Explorer or Netscape Navigator. NETGEAR recommends using 
Internet Explorer or Netscape Navigator 4.0 or above. Free browser programs are readily available 
for Windows, Macintosh, or UNIX/Linux.

For the initial connection to the Internet and configuration of your firewall, you will need to 
connect a computer to the firewall that is set to automatically get its TCP/IP configuration from the 
firewall via DHCP.

The cable or DSL modem broadband access device must provide a standard 10 Mbps (10BASE-T) 
Ethernet interface.

Depending on how your ISPs set up your Internet accounts, you will need one or more of these 
configuration parameters to connect your firewall to the Internet: 

•

Host and Domain Names

•

ISP Login Name and Password

•

ISP Domain Name Server (DNS) Addresses

•

Fixed IP Address which is also known as Static IP Address

There are several ways you can gather the required Internet connection information.

•

Your ISPs provide all the information needed to connect to the Internet. If you cannot locate 
this information, you can ask your ISPs to provide it or you can try one of the options below.
