Router that meets the
following specifications: the power input to the router must be +9 to 15VDC at 500mA,
negative tip, outer barrel positive. The connector is a standard female DC power plug
with a 2.1mm inside diameter and 5.5mm outside diameter. LZR Electronics part
number HP-114A, or Radio Shack catalog number 274-1569 will comply.
When power is connected to a router, the Status and Service LEDs will change state as
described in figures 7.3 and 7.4. Once a router is powered and configured, the Service
LEDs will stay off unless the service request button is pressed.

Installing the Router on a Network
Once a router is physically attached to a network, and powered-up, it must be logically
installed on the network. A router may be installed using a network services tool such
as the LonMaker Installation Tool or the LonBuilder Network Manager, or a custom
network services tool based on the LonManager API. Alternatively, a custom network
services tool can be implemented using the router network management messages
defined in Chapter 8, but this is recommended only for very simple networks with no
more than a few routers due to the complexity of calculating timing parameters and
forwarding tables for complex networks.
