Before You Begin
1.
If you purchased this Firewall to share your high-speed Internet connection with
other computers, you must have either an Ethernet-based Cable or DSL modem
with an established Internet account from an Internet Service Provider (ISP).
2.
It’s best to use the same computer that is connected to your modem for configuring
the DFL-80 VPN Firewall. The DFL-80 acts as a DHCP server and will assign all
the necessary IP address information on your network.
See Appendix at the end
of this Quick Installation Guide or the Manual on the CD-ROM for setting each
network adapter to automatically obtain an IP address.
