WAN and System Configuration 9-15

The ATMP/PPTP Default Profile

The ATMP/PPTP Default Profile screen controls whether or not your device will answer VPN connection attempts without an explicitly configured connection profile. See “Virtual Private Networks (VPNs)” on page 12-1for more information.

System Configuration Screens

You can connect to the Netopia 4753’s system configuration screens in either of two ways:

By using Telnet with the device’s Ethernet port IP address

Through the console port, using a local terminal (see “Connecting a Console Cable to Your Device” on page 6-3)

You can also retrieve the Netopia 4753’s configuration information and remotely set its parameters using the Simple Network Management Protocol (see “SNMP” on page 14-13).

Open a Telnet connection to the device’s IP address; for example, “192.168.1.1.”

The console screen will open to the Main Menu, similar to the screen shown below:

Netopia 4753 v5.1

Easy Setup...

WAN Configuration...

System Configuration...

Return/Enter goes to Easy Setup -- minimal configuration.

You always start from this main screen.
