Quick-Start Guide for Nortel Networks 5399 and 8000 Access Switches

Task 7: Set Switch Parameters

Using the switch parameters gathered from Task1, configure the switch.

View the existing WAN parameters by entering sho wan=all all. Set the WAN parameters to be compatible with those provided by the telco. For information on setting WAN parameters, refer to Managing Nortel Networks 5399 and 8000 Access Switches Using Command Line Interfaces.

Note: Make sure the WAN parameters are compatible with those provided by the telco. The telco may temporarily disable lines connected to improperly configured devices. For more information on WAN parameters, refer to Nortel Networks 5399 and 8000 Access Switch Software Reference.

Task 8: Configure Security

This section describes how to configure both ACP and RADIUS security regimes and PPP setup. When configuring RAC security, you configure the security regime before configuring PPP.

Note: If you are using another third party security regime, refer to the Managing Nortel Networks 5399 and 8000 Access Switches Using Command Line Interfaces and Installing and Administering the Config Utility.

ACP Security

This section tells the user how to configure ACP security on a server and how to setup the RAC to authenticate users. After setting up security on a Microsoft NT server or a UNIX server, you must setup the RAC for authentication on the server.

Note: To configure ACP security, you must have selected ACP as the default security regime during the software installation.
