The Shiva VPN Gateway can connect to the Internet using an external dialup analog
modem, an ISDN modem, a permanent analog modem, a cable modem or DSL link.
Connecting a modem
The first step in connecting your office network to the Internet is to physically attach
your Shiva VPN Gateway to the modem device.
If you are configuring an analog modem or ISDN connection as your primary Internet
connection, see the section “COM port settings” on page 21.
Connect your Shiva VPN Gateway's Internet port to the modem device using a straight
through Ethernet cable. Apply power to the modem and give it some time to power up.
Ensure that the Ethernet link LEDs are illuminated on both the Shiva VPN Gateway
and modem device.
