You may sign on as Supervisor or Network Manager to configure the IAD as a router. Options that display in the Router Configuration menu are the same for both security levels.

NOTE Be sure to reset the IAD (page 14) when after making changes to router configuration. Resetting the IAD causes the configuration changes to take effect.

Configuring

a Port IP Address

To configure the IAD as a router, you must assign an IP address to both the LAN and WAN ports—each with different subnet masks.

NOTE You can assign up to 8 IP addresses on each of the WAN and LAN ports.

To configure an IP address:

1.Type C on the Router Configuration menu to select Configure Port IP address.

2.If more than one WAN port is installed or more than one PVC/DLCI exists, the IAD displays the interfaces on this IAD (sample shown):

Available Interfaces:

1.SDSL

2.10/100BaseT Ethernet

0. (Abort)
