Setup

Take the supplied ethernet cable and connect it into ETH1 coming from an access point (eg. switch, router, modem, etc.) with internet access.

Next, plug the power supply into Byos Gateway Edge to power it on.

Once the Secure Gateway Edge is powered on, please check in your computer’s network settings for the Wi-Fi network Byos which has been created by the Secure Gateway Edge. Once available in range, click connect and input the password: 12345678.

Once you have successfully connected, you can move to the Account Creation step.

Account Creation

Once powered on and connected to your computer, visit a browser and type http://10.10.4.1. This will take you to the Secure Gateway Edge’s locally running web dashboard where you will create an account for the device.

Upon creating your account, you will be prompted to save your password recovery codes. These codes can be used to reset your password in case it is forgotten. Please save these in a memorable location.

Once your account is created, login to the home dashboard. You will notice the device has an inactive license, as indicated by the red warning symbol on the left side of the dashboard.

License Activation

To activate the license, please click Settings in the left navigation bar and proceed to enter the license activation credentials sent by Byos to the email address used during purchase.

Once the Secure Gateway Edge is activated, you will see it active in your Byos Management Console.

If you click on Group Management, you will see the newly activated Edge has been automatically been placed in the Default Group.

Your Byos Secure gateway Edge is now fully activated, and can be disconnected from your computer and be deployed as needed.
