This chapter provides an example of a simple network using remote bridge devices to access four
basic rate lines in the CyberSWITCH. Bridges are formed between each of the LANs to which the
remote bridge devices are connected, and the LAN to which the CyberSWITCH is connected.
The following section provides the initial installation steps that would be used with any type of
network installation.

The initial steps in the CyberSWITCH installation process are basically the same no matter how
complicated the network. These steps are:
•
completing the requirement worksheets
•
ordering ISDN service
•
powering on the system
•
accessing Release Notes
•
connecting an administration console
•
setting up Telnet access
•
upgrading system software
•
changing defaults to secure system
•
returning configuration to factory defaults
The chapters Accessing the CyberSWITCH and
Upgrading System Software (in the User’s Guide)
describe each of these steps in detail.
Worksheets for this network are included on the next few pages.
