ProSafe Gigabit Quad WAN SSL VPN Firewall SRX5308
Tip: If you are using a Dynamic DNS service such as TZO, you can identify
the WAN IP address of your VPN firewall by running tracert from the
Windows Run menu option. Trace the route to your registered FQDN.
For example, enter
tracert VPN firewall.mynetgear.net, and
the WAN IP address that your ISP assigned to the VPN firewall is
displayed.
Use the Command-Line Interface
You can access the command-line interface (CLI) using the console port on the rear panel of
the VPN firewall (see Rear Panel on p
age 19).
You can access the CLI from a communications terminal when the VPN firewall is still set to
it
s factory defaults (or use your own settings if you have changed them).
To access the CLI:
1. From your comp
uter’s command-line prompt, enter the following command:
telnet <ip ad
dress>
in which ip addre
ss is the IP address of the VPN firewall.
2. Enter admin and
password when prompted for the login and password information (or
enter guest and password to log in as a read-only guest).
3. Enter exit t
o end the CLI session.
Any configuration changes made through the CLI are
not preserved after a reboot or power
cycle unless you issue the CLI save command after making the changes.
Use a Simple Network Management Protocol Manager
Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) forms part of the Internet Protocol Suite as
defined by the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF). SNMP is used in network
management systems such as the NETGEAR ProSafe Network Management Software
(NMS200) to monitor network-attached devices for conditions that warrant administrative
attention.
SNMP exposes management data in the form of variables on the managed systems, which
describ
e the system configuration. These variables can then be queried (and sometimes set)
by managing applications.
SNMP lets you monitor and manage the VPN firewall from an SNMP manager. It provides a
remote means to monito
r and control network devices, and to manage configurations,
statistics collection, performance, and security. The VPN firewall supports SNMPv1,
SNMPv2c, and SNMPv3.
