Nortel Networks 114200-E manual Before You Run Quick-Start

Installing and Operating Passport ARN Routers

Before You Run Quick-Start

To aid you in answering Quick-Start prompts, some sample worksheets are provided. Fill them out with assistance from your network administrator. The worksheets contain options that appear at each prompt when configuring a serial interface, and space for you to enter your own information. If you are configuring an interface other than the serial interface, the prompts will differ from what is shown in the sample worksheets. In that case, use the sample worksheets only as a guide and review the actual Quick-Start prompts and options carefully before replying.

Be sure to fill out the worksheets and read all sections of this appendix before you run the Quick-Start script. The sections in this appendix, “Filling Out the Worksheets” and “Running the Quick-Start Script,” provide additional information about the Quick-Start script.

Note: Contact your network administrator for assistance in selecting worksheet responses.

Understanding Quick-Start Connector Names and Numbers

The Quick-Start script assigns a name and number to each interface, depending on its location on the ARN.

In addition to either an Ethernet or token ring base module, the ARN can contain expansion modules and adapter modules (Figure B-1).
