This section describes how an administrator can use the console port and web to log in to the FW administrator interface for the first time.

Startup Wizard

The startup wizard assists you in completing basic device configurations and connecting the device to the Internet. This section describes parameters for each step and the operations of the wizard.

Administrator

This section describes how to configure administrators, including configuring administrator accounts, administrator interfaces, and services.

System Clock

A precise system time ensures the accuracy and consistency of collaboration between devices and helps the administrator gain visibility into the specific time of system events.

NTP

This section describes how to configure Network Time Protocol (NTP) to make clocks of the devices on the network identical.

System Character Encoding

This section describes how to switch the system character encoding format on the FW.

Update Center

This section describes how to update the signature database, Artificial Intelligence Engine (AIE), and local reputation to the specified versions to enhance the dynamic defense capabilities of a network security device.

SNMP

The Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) provides a set of standard protocols for the communication between the network management station (NMS) and devices, allowing the NMS to normally manage devices and receive alarms reported by the devices.

Across-Layer-3 MAC Identification

When the FW is connected to the intranet through layer-3 devices, configuring across-Layer-3 MAC address identification enables the FW to obtain MAC addresses of intranet PCs.

Setting the Mail Service

After the SMTP mail server is configured, the device can send information to a specified email box.

System Restart

You need to restart the system if the device works improperly or needs to be upgraded or to replace the startup file.

Upgrade Through USB

Upgrade through USB can be implemented manually or automatically.

PoE

Power over Ethernet (PoE) can be configured to supply power to terminals such as IP phones and network cameras, reducing costs.

LLDP

The Link Layer Data Protocol (LLDP) provides a link-layer network discovery mode for tracing and rapidly learning Layer-2 network topology changes.

Cloud Management
