9.5.2 Starting up the FL MGUARD PCI4000 via a temporary man-
agement IP address
If the FL MGUARD PCI4000 is connected without a functioning external network in initial
startup mode, the device cannot be accessed via address https://1.1.1.1/.
In this case, the FL MGUARD PCI4000 is accessible automatically via management IP ad-
dress 192.168.1.1/24. This applies to the internal (LAN 1) and the external (WAN 1) net-
work interfaces. An address conflict with the external network interface is not possible as
long as WAN 1 is not connected to a functioning network. This management IP address is
normally non-persistent.
Starting up the FL MGUARD PCI4000 without external network
• Connect the internal network interface (LAN 1) of the FL MGUARD PCI4000 to the cor-
responding Ethernet network card of the configuration computer or a valid network con-
nection of the internal network.
• Disconnect the external network interface (WAN 1) of the FL MGUARD PCI4000 from
the external network (WAN).
• Switch on the system. The STAT LED lights up green when the supply voltage has been
connected properly.
The device boots the firmware. The STAT LED flashes green.
Adapting the configuration computer
In order to access the FL MGUARD PCI4000 for configuration, the configuration computer
must be adapted to the management IP address of the FL MGUARD PCI4000.
Example of Microsoft Windows XP:
• Set the following in the “Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) Properties” of the relevant network
interface of the configuration computer:
• Enter the address assigned into the browser: https://192.168.1.1/
• Configure the device as described in “Configuring the FL MGUARD PCI4000” on
page 201.
However, if the external network interface (WAN 1) is connected after booting the
FL MGUARD PCI4000, the management IP address remains valid. In this case, an ad-
dress conflict with an existing address in the external network is possible.
