vertically, ensure at least 3 inches of distance between other IADs or other equipment.

NOTE 6000 family IADs may be stacked on top of one another, when mounted horizontally. 7000 family IADs may be rack mounted.

Wiring Requirements

Connect via Terminal Emulator

Make sure that the telephone wiring, LAN and WAN cables reach the IAD and can be dressed in a manner that is safe for the wiring, does not pull or create lateral stress on the connectors or ports on the rear of the IAD, and does not present a trip hazard to personnel working in the vicinity of the equipment. Do not connect any cables or wiring at this time.

The IAD is configured and managed from either the console or Ethernet port. Most network engineers use Telnet to access the IAD via Ethernet. After you use a terminal emulator program via the console port to set the IP address, you may continue to use a terminal emulator via the console port if you choose.

NOTE After a period of inactivity (three minutes by default), the IAD automatically terminates console-based and Telnet sessions to maintain security. To change this value, see Configuring the Console Timeout Period on page 38.

Before you can connect to the IAD via Telnet, make sure the IP address is set correctly for this network. To do so, follow the steps, each described in detail below:

1.Connect the IAD to a PC

2.Log in to the IAD

3.Set the IP address

NOTE Be sure that the IAD and PC are both powered OFF before connecting the console cable. If both devices are not turned off when you connect the cables, you may place the IAD in an unstable state, and you may need to reset one or both devices before you can perform configuration tasks.

Connect the IAD to a PC

To connect the IAD to a PC via the console port:

1.Turn off both devices and insert the male connector of a DB9 serial cable into the console port on the IAD.

2.Insert the female connector of the cable into a serial (COM) port on your PC.

NOTE See RS-232DB-9 Console Port Pin Assignments on page 289 for console port specifications.
