Chapter 5 Configuring Vmux-2100 for a Typical Application Vmux-2100Installation and Operation Manual

5.2 Outline of Configuration Procedure

The recommended configuration procedure of the local and remote Vmux-2100 units include the following steps:

•Configuring of the IP host parameters for both units via an ASCII terminal connection.

•Installing the two units at their locations.

•Configuring the local Vmux-2100.

•Saving the configuration file (cnfg.dat) of the local unit at the management station.

•Downloading the configuration file to the remote Vmux-2100 and updating its database.

•Changing the IP addresses of the remote E1/T1 groups to the valid ones.

5.3Configuring Vmux-2100 for Operation with CAS Signaling

Most of the configuration procedures are performed on the local unit, except for the defining IP host parameters, and IP addresses of the remote E1/T1 groups.

Configuration procedure is divides into three main stages:

•Defining system parameters.

•Configuring main link parameters.

•Setting voice card parameters.

Note You must save the selected values by updating the Vmux-2100 database. If the database is not updated, Vmux-2100 discards all the user settings when it is reset. You can save selected values at any stage of the configuration procedure.

Configuring System Parameters

	To configure the Vmux-2100 system parameters:
	1.	Configure an ASCII terminal to: 9.6 kbps, one start bit, eight data bits, no
		parity, one stop bit, no flow control, VT100 emulation
	2.	Connect the terminal to the local Vmux-2100 DB-9 CONTROL port.
	3.	Initiate the control session by entering the user name and password.
	4.	Verify that the main link card (M-IPE1) and the voice card (V-4E1) are
		identified by Vmux-2100 (Main Menu > Inventory).
	5.	Display the Host IP menu and enter the host IP address (172.17.15.10), its
		subnet mask and default gateway values (Main Menu > Configuration >
		System > Management > Host IP).
	6.	Repeat step 2 to step 5 for the Vmux-2100 unit to be installed at the remote
		location.
Note
	The rest of the configuration procedure refers to the local unit. Information
	applicable to both units (or only to remote Vmux-2100) is explicitly identified.
