Installation
The P1705 & P1730 are flexible Ethernet Bridge/Routers that may be configured to service Local Area Networks and Wide Area Network connections over leased lines, ISDN circuits, and frame relay permanent virtual circuits. The P1705 supports a single LAN and one or two WAN links (one ISDN BRI interface or two other WAN modules). The P1730 supports two independent LANs plus one WAN interface or a single LAN plus two WAN interface modules (if two ISDN BRI modules are installed, this will provide 4 WAN links)
PPPISDN units provide bridging, IP/IPX routing, and compression over a PPP ISDN connection and support an ISDN BRI interface via an integral
PPPLease line units provide bridging, IP/IPX routing, and compression and support one or two physical wide area network (WAN) links that may operate at speeds up to 2.048 Mbps.
Frame Relay units provide bridging and IP/IPX routing and support 1 to 128 Permanent Virtual Circuit (PVC) across two physical wide area links running RAW 1490 or encapsulated PPP.
The following instructions provide a quick
P1730 Ethernet Bridge/Routers:
Unpack the Router
Rough handling during shipment can damage electronic equipment. As you unpack the bridge/router, carefully check for signs of damage. If damage is suspected, contact the shipper. Save the box and all packing material to protect the bridge/router should it ever need to be moved or returned for service.
Check the packing slip that identifies the components and the LAN connector.
Select a Site
Place the bridge/router in a well ventilated area. The site should maintain normal office temperature and humidity levels. Air vents located on the sides of the bridge/router must have approximately one inch / 2.5 centimeters of clearance from any object.
