Quickstart
Now that you have set up your MAX and connected it to the network, you can gather the
information you need to configure the MAX for network operations.
Using the MAX unit’s VT100 interface, you can set the required parameters to enable basic
LAN and WAN connectivity. Follow the instructions in this chapter for basic Ethernet and
ISDN BRI, T1, and E1 line configuration. Then perform basic tests of the connections.
For detailed instructions on network and MAX configuration, see the Network Configuration
Guide. For detailed information about parameters and commands, see the MAX Reference. For
detailed information about using the VT100 interface for configuring the MAX, see the
Administration Guide.
Introduction
This chapter describes how to implement a basic configuration for the MAX. The Quickstart
configuration enables functionality required to verify that the MAX unit is connected to the
network, the lines are active, the telephone numbers are correct, and the unit is able to place
and receive calls.
The Quickstart configuration procedure includes:
•
Assigning an IP address and subnet mask (if you have not already done so).
•
Establishing routing table updates.
•
Optionally, establishing address resolution service, a default route to an IP router, and
dynamic IP addressing.
•
Setting up basic ISDN line parameters such as signaling mode and telephone numbers for
analog and digital calls.
•
Testing LAN and WAN connections.
