Installing IPCop (1,2,3,4,5,6) (continued..)

After disabling ISDN, you'll be brought to the Network configuration menu. I will be referring to this as the main menu.:

Network Configuration Menu

The first part we will work on is the Network configuration type. Select this option and tab to OK and click it:

Network Configuration Type

For our purposes, you'll want to select GREEN + RED. What this means is you will only be using Ethernet for the firewall. It's possible to use a modem too, and if you are, you can skip this step. I may cover the other options in the future, but for now just select GREEN + RED and click OK.

After selecting OK, you'll be brought back to the main menu. You'll notice your current config has changed to GREEN + RED. Next, select Drivers and card assignments to probe your next card:

Drivers and Card Assignments

Your screen should look similar to this (probably a different network card). Click OK and it will probe for your other card. If its the same type, it will find it fast, if not you'll see it scroll through a list of devices. Once it's found you'll see the name and your only option will be to assign it to RED (click OK on this screen, and the next confirming it's assigned):
