Connect your CloudGate NXS via the LAN ethernet port to a computer with an Ethernet cable and start to configure the device locally using the on-device web interface. The web interface allows you to configure one device at a time.
TIP: To provision a number of CloudGate's at once, use the web interface to create a configuration file and use the CloudVIU Provisioning to provision the configuration to multiple devices. The procedure how to do this is explained in this guide.
In the Logging On section you can learn how to log on to the on-device web interface.
The web interface displays a number of tabs based on the expansion cards installed. For the CloudGate base unit with no expansion cards, the following default tabs are available: Home, Interfaces, Firewall, Connection Persistence, Provisioning, System and VPN. In the Interfaces tab you can select between Main Ethernet and or LTE Connection.
