Connect and Configure 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.
Add devices to the Conductor
After you connect devices to Airwall Gateway hardware, there are four ways to add a device to the Conductor.
Use 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.
Enable passive device discovery
Enabling device discovery option allows an Airwall Gateway to passively discover devices within the overlay device network it is connected to.
