1 Installation
1.1 Requirements
To insure a smooth installation of your HotBrick VPN 6000, we should make sure to
have all the necessary equipment and information ready. To configure your firewall for
the first time we will need
1x HotBrick VPN 6000
1x Standard power cord (bundled with HotBrick VPN 6000)
2x UTP RJ45 cables (bundled with HotBrick VPN 6000)
1x PC or notebook computer
1x HotBrick VPN 6000 license key
If we are to set up your firewall to handle one or more Internet connections, we will
also need
Connection details provided by your Internet Service Provider (ISP)
1.2 Getting to know your HotBrick VPN 6000
1.2.1 Front
1.2.2 Back
1.3 Hardware insta ation
➔Use the power cord to connect the HotBrick VPN 6000's power socket (15) to a
standard wall power outlet.
➔Switch the firewall on, using the power switch (16), on the back of the device.
Booting the hardware for the first time may take up to 1 minute.
When the firewall is switched on and ready, you should hear 3 short beeps. If you have
not heard 3 beeps within 1 minute of switching on the device, please refer to section
1.12 ( Errors and recovery).

➔Use an UTP RJ45 cable to connect the firewall's FLEX1 port (7) to a network
connector on your PC or notebook.
➔Switch on the PC or notebook.
The FLEX1 connection LED above the FLEX1 port (8) should come on. If this LED does
not come on, please refer to section 1.12 ( Errors and recovery).
1.4 Connecting to the management interface
Your HotBrick VPN 6000 is highly configurable by means of a powerful management
interface. Once the device is properly set up you will be able to access this interface
from any machine in your local network (provided you know the right password). For
the initial setup of the firewall we will make use of the same management interface.
However, because the device is not set up to connect with a local network or Internet
connection, it must first be configured using a single PC or notebook.
1.4.1 Configure a notebook or PC to use DHCP
If you are to use the firewall's management interface from your notebook or PC, then
both are to be connected and using a common network setup. The fastest way to
effect this is to have your PC or Notebook computer configure it's network settings
automatically by means of DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol). As this is
done in a slightly different manner by various operating systems, the following
sections will detail the procedure for enabling DHCP in Windows® 2000, Windows® XP
(or Windows® 2003) and Mac OS X® respectively.
Enab ing DHCP using Windows® 2000
➔Using the Windows® “Start” menu (and Settings sub menu), open the “Control
Panel”.

automatically”.
➔Click the “OK” button to confirm your changes.
➔To verify your settings, open a “Command Prompt” (From the “Start” menu,
through “Programs”, in the “Accessories” sub menu).

- HotBrick VPN 6000 user manual -
➔If the “IP Address” line does not list an address starting with 192.168.99, please try
typing
ipconfig /renew
This should force the PC or Notebook to request a new network address. If you still fail
to get an “IP Address” in the correct range, please refer to section 1.12 ( Errors and
recovery).
Enab ing DHCP using Windows® XP
➔Using the Windows® “Start” menu (and Settings sub menu), open the “Control
Panel”.
➔In the “Control Panel”, double click the “Network Connections” icon.
The “Network Connections” window should open.
