Front Panel Ports
Label | Description |
|---|
RESET | Press the button in for about 5 seconds (or until the SYS LED starts to blink), then release it to return the Zyxel Device to the factory defaults (password is 1234, LAN IP address 192.168.1.1 and so on). |
CONSOLE | You can use the console port to manage the Zyxel Device using CLI commands. You will be prompted to enter your user name and password. See the Command Reference Guide for more information about the CLI. When configuring using the console port, you need a computer equipped with communications software configured to the following parameters: • Speed 115200 bps • Data Bits 8 • Parity None • Stop Bit 1 • Flow Control Off |
USB | Connect a storage device for system logs (see Maintenance > Diagnostics > System Log) and storage (see Configuration > System > USB Storage). |
P2-P7 ( ) P2-P8 ( ) P1-P12 () | These are 1G RJ-45 Ethernet ports. |
Rear Panels
Note: Make sure you connect the Zyxel Device's power cord to a socket-outlet with an earthing connection or its equivalent.
The following table describes the items on the rear panel.
Rear Panel Items
Label | Description |
|---|
Console | You can use the console port to manage the Zyxel Device using CLI commands. You will be prompted to enter your user name and password. See the Command Reference Guide for more information about the CLI. When configuring using the console port, you need a computer equipped with communications software configured to the following parameters: • Speed 115200 bps • Data Bits 8 • Parity None • Stop Bit 1 • Flow Control Off |
Power | Use the included power cord to connect the power socket to a power outlet. Turn the power switch on if your Zyxel Device has a power switch. |
Lock | Attach a lock-and-cable from the Kensington lock (the small, metal-reinforced, oval hole) to a permanent object, such as a pole, to secure the Zyxel Device in place. |
Fan | The fans are for cooling the Zyxel Device. Make sure they are not obstructed to allow maximum ventilation. |
Note: Use an 8-wire Ethernet cable to run your Gigabit Ethernet connection at 1000 Mbps. Using a 4-wire Ethernet cable limits your connection to 100 Mbps. Note that the connection speed also depends on what the Ethernet device at the other end can support.
Installation Scenarios
The Zyxel Device can be:
• Placed on a desktop.
• Wall-mounted on a wall.
• Rack-mounted on a standard EIA rack.
The following table summarizes the installation scenarios of the Zyxel Device by model.
ATP Series Installation Comparison Table
ATP MODELS | ATP100 /ATP100W | ATP200 | ATP500 | ATP700 / ATP800 |
|---|
Rubber feet for desktop placement | Yes | Yes | Yes | No |
Wall Mounting | Yes | Yes | No | No |
Rack Mounting | No | Yes | Yes | Yes |
WARNING! Do NOT block the ventilation holes on the Zyxel Device. Allow 100 mm clearance for the ventilation holes to prevent your Zyxel Device from overheating. Do not store things on the Zyxel Device. Do not place a Zyxel Device on another high temperature device. Overheating could affect the performance of your Zyxel Device, or even damage it.
Desktop Installation Procedure
1 Make sure the Zyxel Device is clean and dry.
2 Remove the adhesive backing from the rubber feet.
3 Attach the rubber feet to each corner on the bottom of the Zyxel Device. These rubber feet help protect the Zyxel Device from shock or vibration, and allow air circulation.
4 Set the Zyxel Device on a smooth, level surface strong enough to support the weight of the Zyxel Device and the connected cables. Make sure there is a power outlet nearby.
Note: Make sure to use the rubber feet when stacking the Zyxel Devices on a desk.
Rack-mounting
Use the following steps to mount the Zyxel Device on an EIA standard size, 19-inch rack or in a wiring closet with other equipment using a rack-mounting kit. Make sure the rack will safely support the combined weight of all the equipment it contains and that the position of the ZyWALL does not make the rack unstable or top-heavy. Take all necessary precautions to anchor the rack securely before installing the unit.
Use a #2 Phillips screwdriver to install the screws.
Note: Failure to use the proper screws may damage the unit.
1 Align one bracket with the holes on one side of the Zyxel Device and secure it with the included bracket screws (smaller than the rack-mounting screws).
2 Attach the other bracket in a similar fashion.
3 After attaching both mounting brackets, position the Zyxel Device in the rack and match up the bracket holes with the rack holes. Secure the Zyxel Device to the rack with the rack-mounting screws.
Note: Make sure there is at least 100 mm of clearance at the sides and 100 mm in the rear to allow air circulation and the attachment of cables and the power cord. When stacking in a rack, make sure there is at least 40 mm of clearance between Zyxel Devices.
Wall-mounting
Do the following to attach your Zyxel Device to a wall.
The following table lists the distance “X” between mounting holes for each model:
Distance “X” Between ATP Mounting Holes
model name | Distance “X” |
|---|
ATP100 | 174 mm (6.85”) |
ATP100W | 174 mm (6.85”) |
ATP200 | 206 mm (8.11”) |
1 Drill into a wall two holes 3 mm – 4 mm (0.12" – 0.16") wide, 20 mm – 30 mm (0.79” – 1.18”) deep and a distance X (see the preceding table) apart. Place two screw anchors in the holes.
2 Screw two screws with 6 mm – 8 mm (0.24" – 0.31") wide heads into the screw anchors. Do not screw the screws all the way in to the wall; leave a small gap between the head of the screw and the wall.
The gap must be big enough for the screw heads to slide into the screw slots and the connection cables to run down the back of the Zyxel Device.
Note: Make sure the screws are securely fixed to the wall and strong enough to hold the weight of the Zyxel Device with the connection cables.
3 Use the holes on the bottom of the Zyxel Device to hang the Zyxel Device on the screws.
Note: Wall-mount the Zyxel Device horizontally. The Zyxel Device's side panels with ventilation slots should not be facing up or down as this position is less safe.
Make sure there is 100 mm of clearance at the sides and 1 – 1.5 mm distance between the screw head and the wall to allow air circulation and the attachment of cables and the power cord.
Default Zones, Interfaces, and Ports
The default configurations for zones, interfaces, and ports are as follows. References to interfaces may be generic rather than the specific name used in your model. For example, this guide may use “the WAN interface” rather than “wan1” or “wan2”, “ge2” or” ge3”.
An OPT (optional) Ethernet port can be configured as an additional WAN port, LAN, WLAN, or DMZ port.
The following table shows the default physical port and interface mapping for each model at the time of writing.

Stopping the Zyxel Device
Always use Maintenance > Shutdown > Shutdown or the shutdown command before you turn off the Zyxel Device or remove the power. Not doing so can cause the firmware to become corrupt.
