Using the Console

The Console Program is the interface that you will be using to configure your DI-

206.Several operations that you should be familiar with before you attempt to modify the configuration of your router are listed below:

♦Moving the Cursor Within a menu, use <tab> and arrow keys to navigate through different information fields.

♦Moving Forward to Another Menu To move forward to a sub-menu below the current one, use <tab> or arrow keys to position the cursor on the sub- menu item and press <Enter> to view the selected sub-menu.

♦Entering Information There are two types of fields that you will need to fill in. The first requires you to type in the appropriate information. The second gives you choices to choose from. In the second case, press the space bar to cycle through the available choices. Upon configuring all fields the sub-menu, position the cursor on SAVE and press <Enter> to save, or position the cursor on EXIT to cancel.

♦Refresh Screen Console screens are notorious for becoming garbled. When this happens, simply press <Ctrl> + <R> to refresh the contents of the screen.

Step 3 - Connecting an ISDN Line to the Router

Your phone company will provide an S/T interface into your home or office. Plug the ISDN line from the router directly into the ISDN wall socket provided by your phone company.

Step 4 - Connecting a Telephone or Fax Machine to the Router

You can connect a regular telephone, fax machine, or modem to your router to be used for analog calls. Note that the router’s other functions all work the same whether you connect an analog device or not.

To connect an analog device, just plug one end of the device’s cord into one of the sockets on the back of the router marked PHONE 1 or PHONE 2.

To have incoming calls directed to a device on a PHONE jack, you must enter the telephone number for the phone in the console program under the Interface Configuration, ISDN submenu.

Step 5 - Connecting Ethernet Cables to the Router

Your DI-206 has six ports for connecting 10BASE-T Ethernet devices to form a LAN. The jacks for ports 1 through 5 are wired to let you connect network end nodes (computers, servers, bridges, other routers, etc.) using standard “straight-through” EIA (Electronic Industries Association) Category 3 or higher twisted-pair cables. The jack for the sixth port is labeled Uplink and is wired to let you connect to
