CHAPTER 1
INTRODUCTION
This chapter provides information about the features and performance of
the WPIM-S/T. It also briefly explains Integrated Services Digital
Network (
ISDN
), call back-up, and the
WAN
protocols supported by the
WPIM-S/T.
Note the following requirements for successful operation of this device:
•
Install the WPIM-S/T in a Wide Area Network host platform. Refer to
Chapter 2
for directions on installation procedures. Refer to the
appropriate host platform manual (i.e., the Cabletron Systems
CSX400
and CSX400-DC Installation Guide
) for other installation and
troubleshooting procedures.
•
Use the Graphical User Interface QuickSET to fully configure the
WPIM-S/T. Due to the automation of setup features, QuickSET use is
strongly recommended. However,
Chapter 3
contains additional
information on configuring the WPIM-S/T, which can be done
independent of QuickSET.
