Reference Manual for the ProSafe Wireless 802.11g VPN Firewall Model FVG318
Maintenance 8-5
v1.0, October 2005
Viewing a List of Attached Devices
The Attached Devices menu contains a table of all IP devices that the firewall has discovered on
the local network. From the main menu of the browser interface, under the Maintenance heading,
select Attached Devices to view the table, shown below.
For each device, the table shows the IP address, NetBIOS Host Name (if available), and Ethernet
MAC address. Note that if the firewall is rebooted, the table data is lost until the firewall
rediscovers the devices. To force the firewall to look for attached devices, click the Refresh
button.
Upgrading the Firewall Software
The routing software of the FVG318 wireless VPN firewall is stored in FLASH memory, and can
be upgraded as new software is released by NETGEAR. Upgrade files can be downloaded from
NETGEAR's Web site. If the upgrade file is compressed (.ZIP file), you must first extract the
binary (.BIN) file before sending it to the firewall. The upgrade file can be sent to the firewall
using your browser.
