Installing the Application Gateway
When installing the Application Gateway, refer to the following
illustration for port locations.
To install the Application Gateway:
1
Install the Application Gateway in a rack (if rack-mounted).
2
Connect the power cord to the AC power receptacle.
3
Connect the 10/100 RJ45 NIC connectors located on the Application
Gateway back panel as follows.
•
If the Application Gateway can access the connected device (router,
application server, etc.) from the same subnet as it receives client
requests, use one network cable. Connect Application Gateway
interface port 0 (LAN1) to your network. This is the typical
configuration.
•
If the Application Gateway will straddle two networks, use two
network cables:
–
Connect Application Gateway Interface 0 (LAN1) to the client-side
network.
–
Connect Application Gateway Interface 1 (LAN2) to the
server-side network, directly or indirectly.
4
Connect the null-modem cable to the 9-pin serial port on the Application
Gateway and connect the cable to a computer that is capable of running
terminal emulation software.
