Deploying an I Series Appliance | Forcepoint Web Security Cloud
Once you have connected the appliance to your network, change the initial password and register the appliance with Forcepoint Web Security Cloud.
When you log back in to the appliance after completing the First-Time Configuration Wizard, the initial screen lets you change the initial password, if you have not already done so, in the Administrator Credentials box. If you changed the password before completing the wizard, the Administrator Credentials box does not appear on this page when you log back in.
This initial page also lets you enter your Forcepoint Web Security Cloud registration key. To register your appliance:
1.
Log on to the cloud portal and select Web > Network Devices.
2.
Select the row that contains this appliance.
3.
Click Register at the bottom of the page to open the Register Appliance box.
4.
Copy the displayed registration key and click Close.
5.
Return to the appliance manager and paste the key into the Registration key field.
6.
Click OK.
At this point, an update to the pre-installed Web category database begins. During this update, the appliance can analyze traffic using the pre-installed database. Note that this database is out-of-date, and analysis may be more accurate after the update process completes.
A download progress message appears on the Status > General page. This message disappears when the update is complete.
