Network Configuration
- A firewall device should have network adapter ports to connect to different network zones.
- By default, port 1 on the FW device is automatically configured for LAN with IP 192.168.0.15.
- The number of ports shown in the configuration screen depends on the number of adapters on the FW device. These ports will be shown as Port 2, Port 3, Port 4 etc.
- The central manager console lets you view and manage the connection used by each device port.
- For help to add interfaces, see Add Interface Devices.
