solution that protects your Intranet and efficiently manages data traffic on your network. The
embedded web configurator is easy to operate and totally independent of the operating system
platform you use.
You should have an Internet account already set up and have been given most of the following
information.

2.1 Rear Panel
LABEL
DESCRIPTION
1.
LAN 10/100M 1-
4
Connect a computer to one of these ports with an Ethernet cable. These ports are auto-
negotiating (can connect at 10 or 100Mbps) and auto-sensing (automatically adjust to
the type of Ethernet cable you use (straight-through or crossover).
2.
WAN 10/100M
Connect your cable/DSL modem to this port with the cable that came with your modem.
3.
POWER 12
VDC
Connect the included power adaptor (use only this adapter) to this power socket.
After you’ve made the connections, connect the power cable to a power supply and look at the front panel LEDs.
CON/AUX switch
CON/AUX port
Only connect this port if you want to configure the ZyWALL using the SMT via console
port or set up a backup WAN connection; see your
User’s Guide
for details.
Set this switch to the “CON” side to use the
CON/AUX
port as a console port for local
device configuration and management. Connect the 9-pin male end of the console
cable to the console port of the ZyWALL and the other end to a serial port (COM1,
COM2 or other COM port) on your computer. Your computer should have a terminal
emulation communications program (such as HyperTerminal) set to VT100 terminal
emulation, no parity, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, no flow control and 9600 bps port speed.
Set this switch to the “AUX” side to use the
CON/AUX
port as an auxiliary dial-up WAN
connection. Use the included CON/AUX converter, with the console cable to connect
the
CON/AUX
port to your modem or TA.
RESET
You only need to use this button if you’ve forgotten the ZyWALL’s password. It returns
the ZyWALL to the factory defaults (password is 1234, LAN IP address 192.168.1.1,
terminal emulation settings as described above etc.; see your
User’s Guide
for details).
2.2 The Front Panel LEDs
The
PWR
LED turns on when you connect the power. The
SYS
LED blinks while performing
system testing and then stays on if the testing is successful. The
CON/AUX
,
LAN
, and
WAN
LEDs
turn on if the ports are properly connected.
