How to configure sophos UTM with my existing router?

Michael Ortega

Hello my name is Mike and iam a newbie at this... right now im trying to set up sophos atm on small office, the business has a aris modem/router build in from Spectrum, i have a dell small factor computer with a EXPI9402PT PRO/1000 PT Dual Port Server NIC... the installation of sophos went ok, however the issue is i cant connect to the sophos admin... my ip are

sophos utm: 192.168.1.1:4444

router ip : 192.168.1.2 (dhcp is disable since i want the UTM to handle this)

ip range starts :192.168.1.3

ran a cable from the modem/router (lan ports) to the UTM and from the UTM to the switch (modem/router---->UTM---->SWITCH----->PCS), however i cant access it from the network when entering the managing ip (https://192.168.1.1:4444) nor when connecting directly to the utm through the admin nic and setting ip manually on my computer.

Could you please explain me what i doing wrong? 

Also  another question is :  Can i use the modem/router as a AP ? or i have to add another router?

Thank you

    I supposed you are using a laptop/desktop PC to connect to your utm.

    Your PC should be on the same network as your utm. From you computer, ping 192.168.1.1. If no response, then you have a network/routing/configuration problem.

    If the ping is successful, using putty or something similar, do "telnet 192.168.1.1 4444". If fail, or stuck on "Trying 192.168.1.1", then your port 4444 is not open.

    I imagine your setup may look like my beautiful drawing below : )

    If you don't get a ping reply or port 4444 is closed, re-install if necessary, get these two resolved and then you'll be able to access webadmin page and continue your setup and configuration.

     

    Good luck!
