Set Up the Campus-REX System

SET UP AN ASCII TERMINAL

You can configure the Campus system through an ASCII terminal connected to the Desktop Unit or Campus-Star in which the Campus-REX is installed. The terminal provides access to some configuration options not available through the LCD menus.

Depending on your immediate configuration plans, you may not need to set up an ASCII terminal now. However, you need to set up a terminal if one of the following applies:

you plan to use the Campus-REX as a router

you need to change the HDSL transmission rate and do not want to use the LCD menus

you plan on setting additional configuration options at this time

you want to view performance statistics on the HDSL and 10BASE-T interfaces

If none of these reasons apply to you, skip this section and proceed to “Set the HDSL Operating Mode” on page 3-7.
