The Wizard is the easiest setup method: one HTML form accepts time zone, IP addresses, domain name, hostname, gateway, and forward proxy port. Click a button to generate a setup file, which you must awkwardly paste into your favorite text editor, then save to floppy with the designated filename autoload.nas. Just pop the floppy into the WebXL when it beeps during boot-up. We were up and running in under ten minutes.

Alternatively, renumber a PC to match the WebXL's default address, connect the cross-over cable, and open the URL http://10.1.1.1:1959/appliance/config.html with a recent browser. We tried this with IE 4.01 and were prompted to install SP1; we wish required browsers had been shipped with the product.
