“One-to-one” Configuration

In situations where a very simple connection is required between two units only, it is recommended that one unit is nominated as the “central site” (configured first) and the other as the “remote site” (configured second), following the relevant sequence for each.

Leased Lines

It is good practise that the WAN port of an existing installation which has already been configured for bridging or routing, and has an additional fixed-link serial line (sometimes called a “Kilostream” line) connected to the WAN port, should be disabled prior to the new configuration.

Take a note of the current WAN port configuration parameters before disabling the port and keep it in a safe, accessible place

1Enter CO PO to display the Port Configuration screen.

2Select the WAN port using the Arrow keys.

3Enter TY NO to disable the WAN port

4Enter SAVE to save the new configuration.

New installations and those units which have been reset to the factory default configuration have their WAN ports disabled.

Configuration by Telephone

It is possible to connect a standard telephone handset to units which are fitted with a Voice port. This is a useful configuration aid for units which have been correctly installed and connected to a functioning ISDN line. A telephone connected to a central site unit Voice port can dial the ISDN number of the remote site unit and connect to a telephone plugged into the remote site unit Voice port. This connection allows an experienced technician to guide a less-experienced technician through the configuration steps of the remote site unit.
