The Astaro Security Gateway Reimaging Process
-----------------------------------------

- Download and burn the latest ASG Hardware ISO image to CD.
- Once the file has been downloaded, burn the ISO image using an ISO burning software. Be sure not to copy the ISO image file directly to the disc as this will not create a bootable re-imaging disc.

Then follow these steps:

- Power-off the ASG device
- Plug a VGA monitor to the VGA port (optional).  This will help monitor the installation process.  If the ASG doesn't have a VGA port, the installation process can be monitored using the LCD panel.
- Plug in the USB-CD-ROM drive (with the burned CD in the drive) (For ASG 320 it is important to use the USB port at the front)
- Power-on the ASG device
- Make sure that "Boot from USB-CDROM" in bios is on first position (default on ASGs)
- Once the installer has started, it will begin to re-image the ASG.  No questions will be asked by the installer.  
- After installation, the ASG starts to beep until it is switched off.
          - Success: 1 beep, 1 second sleep, repeated until switched off
          - Failure: 3 short beeps, 2 seconds sleep, repeated until  switched off
- Once the installation has completed, the following values will be set:

Keyboard Layout: English(USA)
Area: Europe/Berlin
Date/Time: Bios setting
Admin interface: eth0 Default
IP Address: 192.168.0.1
Default Netmask: 255.255.255.0
