Quick Startup Guide

When the computer which is attached to the local LAN attempts to access a host on the access server, the Express XL/XLT will dial the number provided in the Connection List profile. The Express XL/XLT will provide one of two B-channels based on traffic demand and POTS port usage (Express XLT model only). If no packet traffic is transmitted or received for the specified number of seconds, the Express XL/XLT will disconnect the link until a computer on the local LAN again attempts to access a host on the access server.

If Novell’s IPX protocol is being used, the link must be dialed first in the Dial menu to obtain the server and route information needed by the computer to boot up. Advanced users can use the Express XL/XLT’s Probe feature to pe- riodically dial the access server to obtain the route and server information, thereby removing the need to manually dial the first time.
