First time setup. Installation completed, unable to get connected to the internet. Please help

Hi all,

 

This is my very first experience with Sophos UTM.

I've installed the software appliance firewall on my 1U rack. Everything seems to be setup correctly.

 

Please note, I have a Cisco Catalyst Switch. I am using a Asus router for wifi connectivity. The ethernet from the Asus router carrying the internet connection goes to the Sophos server, and then from the second lan port the ethernet cable goes to the Cisco Switch port 1.

Now my Server/PC is connected to the Cisco switch.. i am able to view and configure the Sophos Webmin control panel from my server. 

After the configuration, i have created a rule to allow internet connectivity.. followed the steps below.

– Click on “Network Protection”
– Click on “Firewall”
– Click on “New Rule…”
– Do the following:

  • Position: Top
  • Sources: Any
  • Services: Any
  • Destination: Any
  • Action: Allow
  • Comment: Firewall Off

Enabled this rule by putting the slider to the “On” position.

Done all this, but the internet still doesnt work.

Asking for help desperately.
