10.4.2 Local configuration on startup (EIS)
As of firmware version 7.2, initial startup of mGuard products provided in Stealth mode is
considerably easier. From this version onwards, the EIS (Easy Initial Setup) procedure en-
ables startup to be performed via preset or user-defined management addresses without
actually having to connect to an external network.
The device is configured using a web browser on the computer used for configuration.
According to the default setting, the device can be accessed via the following addresses:
The device is preset to the “multiple Clients” stealth configuration. You need to configure a
management IP address and default gateway if you want to use VPN connections (see
Page 221). Alternatively, you can select a different stealth configuration or use another net-
work mode.
NOTE: The web browser used must support SSL encryption (i.e., HTTPS).
