Configuring the Remote Unit

Changing the IP address during the remote management session will cause the session to be disconnected when the new address is submitted. This is normal.

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

1Enter CO SYS to display the System Parameters screen.

2Type in the name assigned to this remote unit in the Unit Name field. The name must be exactly the same as that used when configuring the central site unit ISDN Numbers table.

Unit names are case-sensitive and must be entered correctly.

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.

5Type the IPX network number 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.
