nabz0r Veteran Posted April 8, 2023 Veteran Share Posted April 8, 2023 (edited) This is my first time working with the product and I was wondering if the Operating Systems comes preinstalled on new appliances. I've purchased two for a client a few weeks ago and today I've unboxed one of them but can't access the GUI. I really hope I don't need to configure this thing with a console cable, I threw all my old cables when I moved to my new house and I really don't feel like buying a new console cable. WHY they are still using the VGA console is beyond my understanding. Edited April 8, 2023 by nabz0r Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+InsaneNutter MVC Posted April 8, 2023 MVC Share Posted April 8, 2023 Can you access it via IPMI? - Netgate 1537 Security Gateway Manual — Accessing IPMI and Changing IPMI Password | Netgate Documentation If so you can check / configure the LAN interface if required: Installing and Upgrading — Assign Interfaces | pfSense Documentation (netgate.com) then log on to the web ui and configure as normal from then on. I have purchased a couple of pfSense devices from Telappliant, who are Netgates partner here in the UK. These have always come with the OS installed and web ui accessible at 192.168.1.1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
