Configuring the Primary Bridge Interface

To configure the primary bridge interface

  1. Navigate to NETWORK | System > Interfaces.
  2. Click the Configure icon in the right column of the X1 (WAN) interface.
  3. Configure the interface with a Static IP address (for example, 192.168.0.12).

    The Primary Bridge Interface must have a Static IP assignment.

  4. For WAN interfaces only:

    1. Configure the default gateway. This is required for the appliance itself to reach the Internet.
    2. Configure the DNS server.
  5. Choose one or more Management options for the interface: HTTPS, Ping (selected by default), SNMP, SSH.

    Selecting HTTPS activates and selects Add rule to enable redirect from HTTP to HTTPS automatically. For more information about HTTP/HTTPS redirection, see HTTP/HTTPS Redirection.

  6. Choose User Login options: HTTP, HTTPS.
  7. To enable redirect to HTTPS from HTTP, select Add rule to enable redirect from HTTP to HTTPS. For more information about this option, see HTTP/HTTPS Redirection.
  8. Click OK.

Choose an interface to act as the Secondary Bridge Interface. Refer to the L2 Bridge Interface Zone Selection for information in making this selection.
