2.Select the line0 entry in the main panel, and click the Edit button.

3.Click the Groups button on the line0 panel.

4.Click the Add button.

5.Enter the group number, the list of channels separated by spaces, and the channel rate, and click OK.

6.Reboot the INA module.

7.Select the INAConfigurePorts function.

8.Click the Sync Ports button.

9.Select the new WAN port, and click the Edit button.

10.Enter the desired network settings.

The new WAN port will not operate properly unless these settings are correct.

Using the Backup and Restore Functions

Backup and restore functions for the INA module are found under the INAMaintain section of the control tree. These functions can backup or restore all or a portion of the network settings for the INA module.

Lucent strongly recommends that a separate backup be performed before and after any changes to the INA module routing configuration.

Back Up the INA Module Settings

To create a backup file for the INA module, select INAMaintainBack Up. You can backup the entire configuration or check specific items to backup (See Figure 6-6). After selecting the backup options, enter or browse to the backup file name and click Backup to begin the process.

The administrative (!root) password is not backed up or restored by the Maintain functions.
