Initial Setup

This chapter explains how to perform the initial ZyWALL setup and gives an overview of SMT

menus.

3.1 Turning On Your ZyWALL

At this point, you should have connected the console port, the LAN port, the WAN port, the Wireless LAN
port and the power port to the appropriate devices or lines. Plug the power cord or power adaptor into an
appropriate power source. For models that have a power switch, push the power switch to the on position.
The PWR LED turns on. The SYS LED turns on after the system tests are complete. The WAN LED, WLAN
LED and one of the LAN LEDs turn on immediately after the SYS LED turns on, if connections have been
made to the LAN and WAN ports.

When you turn on your ZyWALL, it performs several internal tests as well as line initialization.

Entering the Password

The login screen appears after you press [ENTER], prompting you to enter the password, as shown below.
For your first login, enter the default password “1234”. As you type the password, the screen displays an “X”
for each character you type.
Please note that if there is no activity for longer than five minutes after you log in, your ZyWALL will
automatically log you out and display a blank screen. If you see a blank screen, press [ENTER] to bring up
the login screen again.
