MANUAL SETUP

This chapter describes how to manually set up the OCR 812 for routing or bridging.

Configuration Overview

The following steps provide an outline to follow when configuring the OCR 812 to route or bridge to remote networks.

1Determine how the OCR 812 will be used (as an IP, IPX Router and/or Bridge) and gather information about your remote site connection using the Configuration Planning Forms provided with the unit.

2Set up a remote site profile for each remote location including Network Service (PPP/PPPoE/PPPoA/RFC 1483), and WAN configuration.

Set up network (IP, IPX and/or Bridge) information:

Configure the network(s) over the LAN.

Add the network information to the remote site profile(s).

Turn RIP (IP and IPX) and SAP (IPX) on or off as needed for your

￿configuration.

Add static and framed routes (IP and IPX) or services (IPX) if needed.

3Optionally, set up DHCP and DNS information.

4Optionally, perform system administration tasks such as setting the date and time, providing contact information, adding or changing Web browser or TELNET login access, and providing TFTP access.

You must assign a system name to the OCR 812 using the SET SYSTEM NAME <name> command. If you do not assign a system name, the unit may reboot during PPP operation.

5Save the configuration.
