Changing Your Network Settings

Note

If the Firebox X Edge cannot connect to the DHCP server in 30 seconds, it uses its DHCP server to give IP

addresses to computers on the optional network. You must enable the DHCP server on the optional

network for the DHCP relay function to operate.

Using static IP addresses for optional computers

You can use static IP addresses for some or all of the computers on your optional network. If you disable

the DHCP server and you do not have a DHCP server on your optional network, you must manually con-

figure the IP address and subnet mask of each computer. You also can configure specified devices with a

static IP address. For example, this is necessary for a web server or network printer. Static IP addresses

must be on the same network as the Firebox X Edge optional interface. Computers with static IP

addresses on the optional network must use the optional interface IP address of the Edge as the default

gateway or router.

To disable the Firebox X Edge DHCP server, clear the Enable DHCP Server on the Optional Network

check box on the Optional Network Configuration page and click Submit.

Note

Computers on the optional network must use the Firebox X Edge optional interface IP address as the

default gateway. If a computer does not use the Edge for the default gateway, it usually cannot get to

the external network or the Internet.

Adding computers to the optional network

You can directly connect only one computer to the Firebox X Edge e-Series optional interface because

there is only one optional Ethernet port. To connect more than one computer to the optional interface,

use a 10/100 BaseT Ethernet hub or switch with RJ-45 connectors. It is not necessary for computers on

the optional network to use the same operating system.

To add more than one computer to the optional network:

1 Make sure that each computer has a functional Ethernet card.

2 Set each computer to use DHCP. For more information, see “Setting Your Computer to Connect to

the Edge” on page 17.

3 Connect each computer to the network. For more information, see “Connecting the Edge to more

than four devices” on page 15.

4 Restart each computer.

Making Static Routes

You can configure the Firebox® X Edge e-Series to send traffic to networks that are behind routers when

you add static routes to these networks. Use the Routes page to make a static route:

1 To connect to the System Status page, type https:// in the browser address bar, followed by the IP

address of the Firebox X Edge trusted interface.

The default URL is: https://192.168.111.1
