Quick-Start Guide

Task 1: Site Preparation

Before installing and configuring a Remote Access Concentrator you need to have the following information:

Line provisioning

IP addresses

Boot sequence

Software image location

Order Line Provisioning

The lines are ordered through the telco before the RAC is installed. Typically this is done after the sales order is placed. The supported switch types and switch parameters are described in Provisioning WAN Lines for Nortel Networks 5399 and 8000 Access Switches. You should have the switch type and parameter values before continuing with the installation.

IP Addresses

You must be prepared to enter the following addresses during the configuration procedure:

Internet address

Subnet mask

Broadcast address

Preferred load host

Preferred dump host

Load/Dump gateway address

Note: Load/Dump gateway is used as a low priority default route after the RAC boots.
