Installing and configuring the Barracuda Web Filter 25
Figure 2.4: Connecting the Barracuda Web Filter to your Network
2. Connect an Ethernet cable from the LAN port on the Barracuda Web Filter to your internal
network switch Uplink port (if one is available).
Note:
If your switch records the MAC address of an external device, make sure you delete all
pre-existing MAC address records from your switch.
3. Select BASIC > IP Configuration page in the administration interface, and set the Operating
Mode setting to Active.
Note:
A hard bypass feature is available on the Barracuda Web Filter 310 and higher models.
4. If necessary, set up static routes on the BASIC > IP Configuration page. Setting up static routes is
often necessary in complex networks so the Barracuda Web Filter knows the proper way to route
traffic on your network.
