CHAPTER 1
OVERVIEW
This chapter describes the features of the WPIM-T1/DDS. It also briefly explains the WAN protocols supported by the WPIM-T1/DDS.
Some steps for successful operation of this device are:
•Install the WPIM-T1/DDS in a Wide Area Network host platform. Refer to Chapter 2 for direction on installation procedures. Refer to the appropriate host manual (i.e., the Cabletron Systems CyberSWITCH CSX400 and CSX400-DC Installation Guide for other installation and troubleshooting procedures.
•Access Local Management. Refer to the appropriate host platform Local Management User’s Guide for instructions on setting up and accessing Local Management.
•Select the service desired, T1 or DDS, using Network Tools.
•Once the desired service has been chosen, refer to the appropriate chapter in this document for setup information.
Due to the automation of setup features, it is strongly recommended to use the Graphical User Interface, QuickSET, to fully configure the device. QuickSET is the desired method for configuring the WPIM-T1/DDS, after using Local Management to choose T1 or DDS service. Check the Release Notes for the availability of QuickSET for configuration. Use Local Management, described in this manual, if QuickSET is not available.
The device in which the WPIM-T1/DDS is to be installed may be referred to as the host platform in this documentation.
