The first time you start the Policy Server, the Join Existing EFW Domain or
Create EFW Domain window appears. Follow the steps below.

list displayed.
If all EFW NICs and Policy Server hosts in your EFW domain will reside on
one network, select the host name.
Otherwise, select an IP address such that:

I
NICs in this domain is routed through the network card on the Policy
Server machine corresponding to this address.
In most cases only one IP address is offered on this screen.
NOTE: Under some network configurations, you may successfully
select the host name option here, even if your EFW domain is spread
across several networks. If you are interested in examining this option
in detail now, refer to the section "Joining a New Policy Server to a
Domain" in the 3Com Embedded Firewall Administration Guide.
2 Select Confirm Create New Domain .

The domain name is used only as a reference to assist you in identifying a
particular domain, if multiple domains are created.
4 Click OK . A Policy Server Startup window appears, displaying the status of
the various Policy Server components.
When "Policy Server Initialized" appears at the bottom of the window, the
Policy Server is fully operational. To close this window, click the X in the
upper right corner of the window. (This window is informational only and
may be left open or closed at any time without affecting the Policy Server.)
NOTE: After first start-up, the Policy Server automatically starts when
the system is rebooted.
