Step 5: Modify Other Settings
Changes that you have made thus far do not take effect until you reset the device. However, it is strongly recommended that you check other device settings to ensure that they cor- respond to your network situation.
Specifically, you should inspect the following pages:
•All VHSI Port settings. The ‘VHSI Port’ group of settings includes the ‘VHSI Port’ link itself, the ‘Protocol’ page (which includes a second page, ‘HDLC’, when the protocol is set to X.25 or ‘DLCI’, when the protocol is set to Frame Relay), and the ‘Dialer’ page.
•ISDN Port settings. If you have an Eicon 1551 and you have selected ‘ISDN’ as the port for a profile, inspect the ‘ISDN Port’ and ‘Protocol’ pages.
When Changing Settings
As you will be moving back and forth between pages of set- tings, please take note of the following:
•When making changes using the web interface, make sure to click the ‘Save’ button on the bottom right of each page. If you move to another page without saving, your changes will not be saved to the device.

•The ‘Reset Form’ button, located at the bottom left of each page, reverts all settings in the current page back to the original values when the page was opened.

•Once saved, the new settings will not take effect until you reset the device.
Step 6: Reset and Test

Once you have reset the device, test that you have access to the remote device using your WAN application. You can also ping the remote device to which you are attempting to connect.
Troubleshooting the VHSI Connection
When the VHSI connection is working properly, the VHSI port indicator light should stay solid. However, note that this light blinks when data is being transmitted over the VHSI port.
If the VHSI light blinks continuously, and if the VHSI con- nection is not working, check your configuration settings, starting with ‘Step 3: Select the VHSI Protocol’ on page 4.
What’s Next?
•Once you have your main connection working, you may wish to create a backup connection in case the main one fails. See ‘Creating Backup Profiles’ on page 7 for more information.
•For information on what the indicator lights mean, see ‘Indicator Lights’ on page 8.
