Introducing the SMT
This chapter explains how to perform the initial ZyWALL setup and gives an overview of SMT
menus.
4.1 Introduction to the SMT
The ZyWALL’s SMT (System Management Terminal) is a menu-driven interface that you can access from a
terminal emulator through the console port or over a telnet connection. This chapter shows you how to access
the SMT (System Management Terminal) menus via console port, how to navigate the SMT and how to
configure SMT menus.
4.2 Accessing the Console Port via the Console Port
Make sure you have the physical connection properly set up as described in the hardware installation chapter.
In addition to the contents of your package, you need a computer equipped with communications software
configured to the following parameters:
♦ VT100 terminal emulation.
♦ 9600 Baud.
♦ No parity, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, flow control set to none.
4.2.1 Initial Screen
When you turn on your ZyWALL, it performs several internal tests as well as line initialization.
After the tests, the ZyWALL asks you to press [ENTER] to continue, as shown next.
