Ringdale ISDN user manual Observe Status Messages, Hanging-up Calls, Exiting OverLAN Commander

CONFIGURING YOUR ROUTER

Step 8: Observe Status Messages

If the router appears to successfully place the call, observe the messages under Status Messages in the General Tab. Also look at the Statistics Tab section. If anything appears to be wrong, consult the network administrator or the ISDN provider and refer to the manual included in the router package. You can also look at the Tables Tab for specific feedback from the router about NRIP, SAP, RIP, ARP, and NAT routing information.

Step 9: Hanging-up Calls

You can hang-up the call by selecting Hangup or, depending on how you setup the router, the router may hang-up by itself.

Step 10: Exiting OverLAN Commander

Select Exit from the file menu to quit the current session of OverLAN Commander. Remember, for any configuration changes to affect the router, you must save changes to the router (Save Setup).

Note: You can also setup and manage the router from its local console port. The router's built in OverLAN Operating System has similar functionality to OverLAN Commander but can only be used locally with the router (not across the network) and it only has a text menu interface -- a local console for the router can be very useful such as when your network or the network of the router is not operating correctly.
