Learn how to deploy the Airwall solution, connect devices, set up overlays, configure device trust, and give people access to your Airwall secure network.
Connecting and Configuring devices
As you prepare to connect devices to Airwall Gateways, you may want your Airwall Gateway product guide available to identify the ports reserved for connecting devices you want to protect.
Adding devices to the Conductor
After you connect devices to Airwall Gateway hardware, there are four ways to add a device to the Conductor.
Using device discovery
Airwall Gateways are able to auto discover devices as soon as they are plugged in. Please note however, a discovered device cannot communicate with other devices in an overlay network until an administrator explicitly accepts the device.
Detect devices manually
If you instead want to use passive device detection, enable Passive device discovery and set up Device Network Configuration for the Airwall Gateway.

Detect devices manually

If you instead want to use passive device detection, enable Passive device discovery and set up Device Network Configuration for the Airwall Gateway.

Go to Airwalls and open an Airwall Gateway from the list.
Go to Local devices > Configuration.
To the right of Local devices:
- v3.1.0 and later – Select Detect and onboard devices.
- v3.0.3 and earlier – Open the Other actions menu and select Detect devices.

Once detected, the protected device appears in the Conductor and the device can then be added to your Overlay networks.

You can also delete detected devices by opening the Other actions menu and selecting Delete discovered devices
