Reference Guide for the Model RM356 Modem Router

Connecting for Configuration

If you are a PC user, you can configure the router through either the FirstGear ISDN Router Configuration Utility, which is an easy-to-use software program, or the menu-based built-in Manager interface. For complete instructions on using FirstGear, refer to Getting Started Using FirstGear for the Model RM356 Modem Router.

If you are using a Macintosh or UNIX-based workstation, you can configure the router only by using the built-in Manager interface.

You can access the built-in Manager interface through either a serial port or Telnet on the LAN. In order to use Telnet, you must know the current IP address of the router. For more information about using the built-in Manager interface, refer to Chapter 3, “Router Configuration .”

Connecting Through the Serial Port

You can access the built-in interface through the RJ-45 serial Manager port by using a VT100 terminal or by using a terminal-emulation program on your PC or workstation. If you are using Windows, for example, Microsoft® provides HyperTerminal with Windows 95. Be sure to set the program for VT100 emulation, including arrow keys.

Serial port parameters are as follows:

9600 bps

8 data bits

1 stop bit

No parity

No flow control

After the serial session is opened, refer to Chapter 3, “Router Configuration ,” for further information about the different methods of configuring your router and for configuration instructions.
