Installing and Operating BayStack ARN Routers

Preparing to Install the ARN

Verify the following before beginning the installation, as explained in the sections that follow:

•Your shipment is complete and undamaged.

•You have the proper equipment and tools.

•Your installation site meets physical, electrical, and environmental requirements.

•You have the communications devices and the cabling that you need to attach to the ARN.

Verifying Shipment Contents

We strongly suggest that you inspect all items for shipping damage. If you detect any damage, do not install the ARN. Call the Bay Networks Technical Response Center in your area, as described in “About This Guide.”

In addition to the ARN and this manual, your shipping container should contain several other hardware accessory items. Verify that the items in the shipping container match those on the packing list.

Note: You can ﬁnd the packing list afﬁxed to the shipping container.

Refer to the following checklist when verifying the contents of the shipping container:

__ One power cable for connecting the ARN to a wall outlet.

__ One cable kit (Order No. 110310) for connecting an optional local console or modem. The console/modem cable kit contains one 15-foot AT standard molded serial cable (with DB-9 receptacle to DB-25 plug connectors) and one null modem crossover adapter (with DB-25 to DB-25 receptacle connectors).

__ Two ﬂange brackets and eight #6 ﬂathead screws.

__ Four #10 cagenut screws and washers for rack-mounting the ARN.

__ Four rubber feet (for table-top operation).
