Installing the Windows SPEEDLAN TM Configurator
1. Shut down all programs and applications.
2.
Note: The SPEEDLAN TM Configurator uses digital libraries, which reside on your Windows 95/
98/NT 4.0 PC. If a program or application is open, the Setup will not install correctly. If the
configurator is not installed correctly, the brouter could be rendered and inoperable after saving a
configuration.
3. Insert the CD into your floppy drive (i.e., Drive E, F, etc.).
4. If the
setup.exe program does not install automatically, click Start + Run . The Run dialog box
appears. Click Browse and locate the setup.exe where your CD-ROM drive is located. Then,
click Open and OK .
5. Follow the installation prompts.
6. After the installation is complete, restart your computer.
Note: Visit the web site for the newest SPEEDLAN TM Configurator.
File Menu
The Windows 95/98/NT 4.0 Configurator will configure either a remote Flash ROM in the SPEEDLAN unit
or configure a SPEEDLAN file saved on your computer. You can configure a SPEEDLAN file on your
computer and download it to the brouter later after you have verified that all settings are correct. This can make
reconfiguring your SPEEDLAN TM a quick operation if you have the completed configuration already saved
to your computer.
Configuring a Remote SPEEDLAN TM
To configure a remote (network attached) brouter, you can use the Open Remote Config and Save functions.
You must have a remote SPEEDLAN TM configuration opened with the Configuration Utility before any
configuration functions may be performed. After you have opened the remote device and configured it, you can
then save your configuration back to the open device. When you ‘Save’ back to the remote device, its Flash
ROM will be erased and then reprogrammed with the new configuration. After you save the configuration, you
must wait the required 15-second period to allow the Flash ROM to be fully programmed and let the bridge
reboot with the new configuration.
Turning off the SPEEDLAN TM or otherwise interrupting the repro-
gramming of the Flash ROM will damage the programming of the brouter, and render it inoperable.
Note: Anytime you make changes in Frequency, IP Routing, or Network ID, start with the brouter
furthest away from your current location. This will help avoid loss of communication between units.
Configuring a Saved Configuration File
To configure a saved CNF file (configuration file), open it from the file menu using the open function. You then
configure the file just as if you were configuring a remote SPEEDLAN TM. When you are finished configuring
the file, save it to disk from the file menu using the “Save Config File as...” function. The “Open Remote
Config...” and “Save Config” functions are used for accessing and saving directly to the brouter without using
a file saved on diskette. Be careful when you save the configuration file that you do not save the configuration
directly to the SPEEDLAN TM; otherwise, you will be configuring the brouter and may not be able to re-
access it after uploading the incorrect configuration to it.
