Login to Bridge/Router and Enter the Required

Configuration

At the login screen type a 1 and the default password to enter the menu system of the Router. The default password is “BRIDGE” (case sensitive) and should be changed if security is desired.

With the options of the built-in menu system, the router may be configured to operate within your environment.

Refer to the PPP Menus Manual file for your operating software on the accompanying CD- ROM for a complete description of all the Menu Options.

The menu system of the router may also be used to view system statistics.

Note: Bridge/Router database changes and statistics viewing may be done remotely by establishing Telnet connections to a partner bridge/router across the WAN. This is accomplished by selecting the “Telnet” option.

Specify the name or IP address of the router you wish to connect to for

 

configuration purposes or viewing of statistics.

 

Noting the Device name at the top left of each Menu may identify the

 

router being controlled.

 

If there is no data transmitted or received for a period of 5 minutes, the

 

Telnet session will be disconnected.

 

To disconnect from the router being controlled, enter Control-C ( ^C ).

 

Telnet security considerations: Telnet may be disabled to prevent remote access

 

control of the router. If Telenet access is enabled, the device password should be



changed to some value other than the default to prevent unauthorized access.
