SIMPLE REMOTE BRIDGING NETWORK

OVERVIEW

This chapter provides an example of a simple network using remote bridge devices to access four basic rate lines in the CyberSWITCH. Bridges are formed between each of the LANs to which the remote bridge devices are connected, and the LAN to which the CyberSWITCH is connected.

The following section provides the initial installation steps that would be used with any type of network installation.

INITIAL INSTALLATION STEPS

The initial steps in the CyberSWITCH installation process are basically the same no matter how complicated the network. These steps are:

completing the requirement worksheets

ordering ISDN service

powering on the system

accessing Release Notes

connecting an administration console

setting up Telnet access

upgrading system software

changing defaults to secure system

returning configuration to factory defaults

The chapters Accessing the CyberSWITCH and Upgrading System Software (in the User’s Guide) describe each of these steps in detail.

Worksheets for this network are included on the next few pages.

CONFIGURING THE SIMPLE REMOTE BRIDGE

Because this is a simple bridged network, you only need to fill out the System Details and Bridging and Routing Information worksheets. The worksheets for Example 1 are on the following pages.
