Connecting to the Edge as a wireless guest
To log on as a wireless guest user, a user must open their web browser and do one of these procedures:
•Type
https:// in their browser address bar, and the IP address of the Firebox X Edge trusted
interface.
The default URL is: https://192.168.111.1
• Try to get access to any HTTP web site on the Internet. The Edge automatically redirects the user
to the login web page.
The Edge does not automatically redirect a user who tries to get access to an HTTPS web site.
The user must type “guest” as the user name. If password protection is not required, the user does not
have to type a password in the password text box. They can keep the text box blank and click OK.
