Assign the Unit Name

The unit must be assigned a unique name. The unit software relies on associating unit names with ISDN numbers and IP addresses for its core functionality.

1Enter CO SYS to display the System Parameters screen.

2Type a unique name for the unit in the Unit Name field. It can have up to 12 characters but note that the name is case-sensitive. Do not include spaces in the unit name.

3Press [Ctrl]+[E] to submit the new setting and then enter SAVE

Configure the Ethernet Port

A unique port IP address and the network subnet mask are required for the Ethernet port (for management of the unit), even if the network is always entirely connected within a non-IP Netware environment.

1Enter CO PO to display the Port Configuration screen.

2Select the LAN1 port using the Arrow keys and enter ED to display the Edit Ethernet Port screen.

3Type a valid, unique IP address for the unit in the Port IP Address field. Do not type the local LAN IP address.

4Type a valid subnet mask for the network in the Port IP Mask field.

5Type the IPX network number for the LAN on which the unit is sited in the Port IPX Network field.

6Toggle the setting of the IPX Frame Type field, using the Spacebar, to the correct frame type for the network.

The frame type must be correct for the network environment in which the unit is operating. If the frame type is not correct, the unit will not pass data. Contact the network administrator for more information about the frame type used.
