Configure networking in VMware Deployments

When installing a CloudGuard WAF Gateway in a VMware deployment, after initial installation, an administrator might require networking changes.

Browsing to the networking administration portal of the CloudGuard WAF Gateway

Using a browser from a machine with access to the CloudGuard WAF gateway, browse to: https://<cloudguard_waf_appsec_gw_address>:30443

At first login, use the username 'admin' and the password that was set up during initial deployment. Afterwards you may have configured additional users and/or changed passwords.

Networking Configuration Options

The browser will now show the administration portal following your login credentials as you set them during the OVF deployment.
