The Conductor has a static IP address congured on its underlay port. To continue initial
setup, connect a workstation to port 1 on the Conductor. Only use Port 1 or Port 2.
Do not use any other ports.
Step 1: Log in and secure the system administrator account:
1. The Conductor is congured with IP address: 192.168.56.2
2. Congure your computer with an IP address in the 192.168.56.0/24 subnet,
e.g. 192.168.56.100
3. In a web browser, connect to https://192.168.56.2
4. Enter the default system administrator username admin
5. Enter the default system administrator password admin123
6. Change the default system administrator credentials when prompted.
Step 2: Connect the Conductor to your underlay
Provision the Conductor-500
You use Diagnostic mode to initially provision an Airwall and congure the settings that are most appropriately controlled locally or that cannot depend on connec-
tivity to Conductor.
To place the Airwall in diagnostic mode:
Press and hold the Diagnostic/Reset button on the front panel for 3 seconds. The Status LED will ash in fast, steady pattern, indicating the unit is in diagnostic
mode.
CAUTION: Do not continue pressing the reboot button for more than 5 seconds as this will factory-reset the Airwall.
Once in diagnostic mode, all device network ports are temporarily bridged together and assigned a temporary IP address of 192.168.56.3, and a DHCP server
is temporarily active on the ports. In this conguration, you can connect a workstation directly and use it to access the diagnostic mode UI via a basic web user
interface active on the device network ports. This UI is used for basic settings and information displays.
The Conductor is the central conguration and management point for Airwall Gateways and they must be able to locate the Conductor on the underlay.
To congure the Airwall:
1. Apply power to the Airwall.
2. Place the Airwall into diagnostic as described above.
3. Congure a workstation to use DHCP to obtain an IP address and netmask, then connect the workstation to any of the device network ports of the Airwall.
4. Open a web browser on the workstation and navigate to http://192.168.56.3 and the diagnostic mode user interface will load.
5. Click on the Conguration drop down, click on Conductor URL and enter the Airwall Conductor URL in Host eld and 8096 in the Port eld.
• If the hostname of the Airwall Conductor is conductor-01.example.com, the URL should be entered as https://conductor-01.example.com
• If the IP address of the Airwall Conductor is 192.168.56.2, the URL should be entered as https://192.168.56.2
NOTE: You must use HTTPS, and connection on port 8096.
6. Click Submit.
7. Reboot the Airwall to return it to normal operating mode. You can reboot it by selecting Diagnostic/Reboot in the diagnostic mode user interface, or by turn-
ing the Airwall off and back on again.
Once the Airwall is correctly provisioned, it appears in the Conductor user interface, where you can further congure and manage it.

Once you have secured the system administrator account, you can connect the Conductor to the underlay using the NIC congured previously. After you connect
the Conductor to the underlay, you can connect to the web-based administrator UI via the hostname or IP address you congured during initial setup.
Step 3: Enter Conductor system conguration information
Once you successfully log in from the Conductor UI and change the default login information, you enter basic conguration information for your Conductor in the
System Conguration dialog.
On either the Network Adapter 1 or Network Adapter 2, select one of the following:
• DHCP to dynamically obtain an IP address from the shared network.
• A DNS hostname for the Conductor. This hostname will be included in the DHCP request to facilitate DNS registration.
• A static IP address that will be valid on the underlay.
Note: When you click Update Settings, you may lose your current connection to the Conductor while the settings are applied. You can log back into the Conduc-
tor once the conguration is complete.

Safety and Warnings
Elevated Operating Ambient: If installed in a closed envi-
ronment, make sure the operating ambient temperature is
compatible with the maximum ambient temperature specied by
the manufacturer.
Reduced Air Flow: Make sure the amount of air ow required for safe oper-
ation of the equipment is not compromised during installation.
Mechanical Loading: Make sure the mounting of the equipment is not in a
hazardous condition due to uneven mechanical loading.
Circuit Overloading: Consideration should be given to the connection of
the equipment to the supply circuit and the effect that overloading of the
circuits might have on over-current protection and supply wiring. Appropri-
ate consideration of equipment nameplate ratings should be used when
addressing this concern.
Explosion Hazard: Do not disconnect equipment unless power has been
removed or the area is known to be non-hazardous.
