XG 106 initial install

Hi there - new to the forum and product! Have ordered the new 106 for business premise which uses Comcast Business line. Is there an initial setup guide for the install plus can one use the Comcast modem or is it best practice to remove and use the firewall as a gateway?

Thanks in advance.

One more, and I sorta learned this on my own so I did not have it in there, but you will want to really familiarize yourself with log viewer. Basically as you set this up and enable additional protections you also get emails for things that should not be blocked. The log viewer is the best way to understand what is blocking this and why once you get the hang of it.
