VMware no Connection

Paolo

Hey all,

since I have the slight feeling that utm will not be supported in the future I wanted to make the first steps with xg

I have installed it into a VMware on my Mac and I am not able to ping or webaccess the firewall.

Questions:

1. is it possible to access the Sophos via wan Interface by default?

2. i changed the lan ip of Sophos to a valid subnet ip (same as wan) but that did not work as well

Unfortunately I cannot tell my Mac to be in 172.16.16.0 in WiFi - he knows that this up cannot so anything within the 192.168. net

So I am a Bit löst and don’t know how I can get it work.

I have tried to deactivate my local Mac firewall and packet filter but that did not work.

I tried to set up a loopback interface, tried to add the 172.16.16.16 to the /etc/hosts but did not work either

Hope you have some good ideas to support me

Thanks a lot

    Hi Paul,

    thank you for the explanation. You can't change the internal IP address until you have set the password in the GUI, then you can access the CLI and change the IP address and DHCP range.

    You could try the external interface for the initial setup?

    Ah ok. Thanks. Thought I could change it in the terminal window when I am logged in

    Unfortunately the external interface (same subnet) is not responding either. Good to know that it should work by default

    I have the feeling that request is send to the default gw and is not routed directly to localhost whiteout going through the network
