Configuring the WAN settings

An external network is a network used by Kaspersky IoT Secure Gateway 1000 to access the Internet or to interact with Kaspersky Security Center. The Kaspersky IoT Secure Gateway 1000 external network can be used to carry out the following tasks:

• Configure interaction between Kaspersky IoT Secure Gateway 1000 and Kaspersky Security Center.
• Forward event logs to an external Syslog server.

To configure the WAN settings:

1. In the menu in the left part of the web interface page, select the Network section.
2. On the WAN tab in the External network settings section, do one of the following:
   • If you need to configure network settings automatically using the DHCP protocol, set the Automatic (via DHCP) toggle button to the enabled position. The Automatic (via DHCP) toggle button is switched on by default.

     If the DHCP server issues null DNS server addresses to Kaspersky IoT Secure Gateway 1000 when enabling automatic configuration of external network settings, connection to resources and routing by domain name will be unavailable. In that event, turn off automatic configuration of network settings over the DHCP and manually set the primary and secondary DNS server addresses.

   • If you need to manually configure the network settings, set the Automatic (via DHCP) toggle button to the disabled position and specify the values for the following settings:
     • IP address. By default, this is set to the last address received from the DHCP server. If there is no such address, this is set to the IP address of the internal network (192.168.1.1 by default).
     • Subnet mask. The default value of this parameter is 255.255.255.0.
     • Gateway.
     • Primary DNS server address.
     • Secondary DNS server address.

     The MAC address field displays the MAC address of the system in the external network.

3. Click Save to save the changes.
4. Restart Kaspersky IoT Secure Gateway 1000 to apply the changes to the network settings.
