MicroRouter 1250i Installation Overview
This manual will help you install the MicroRouter 1250i to connect a
local Ethernet to one or two remote networks and/or remote PPP client
computers. These connections can be made to other Compatible
Systems routers, routers from other vendors, or PPP compliant dial-in
software packages running on a variety of computers. The wide area
interfaces on the MicroRouter 1250i may be used to interconnect your
network with other corporate networks, and to make your network’s
resources available to dial-in clients.
In short, the installation steps are:
1. Install the MicroRouter hardware and connect the primary WAN
port’s built-in T1 CSU/DSU to a fractional T1 or full T1 line.
2. Select the management method you wish to use with the router. If
you want to use the CompatiView management software, you must
install the software on a Windows PC which is connected to your
network.
3. Configure the MicroRouter LAN and WAN parameters using the
management method you have chosen.
4. Connect the secondary WAN port’s RS-232 to an external line
communication device (including modems, 56K CSU/DSU’s, and
ISDN Terminal Adapters).
