WAN Configuration
A WAN port is used to connect one end of a leased line, i.e., a high-speed,
permanent circuit. The configuration is simple as the IPNC automatically senses
the line’s interface type (V24, V35 and X21).
CAUTION: In order to configure the WAN interface, the WAN cable must be
attached at boot up.
Before configuring the WAN link:
1. Connect the WAN cable.
2. Re-boot the Cassette.
3. Receive the configuration from the IPNC (see page 23).
The link is now detected by the system and ready to configure.
Name: This is allocated by the IPNC.
Speed: Enter the leased line speed, i.e. the operational speed quoted by the
carrier. It is important that this is correct as it is used in the calculation of
bandwidth allocation.
Mode: Select the protocol required:
- SyncPPP - for a data link
- SyncFrameRelay - for a link supporting Frame Relay
Notes: 1. When SyncFrameRelay is selected (only), the Frame Relay and
DLCIs tabs are shown.
2. On the Frame Relay tab, enter the Frame Management Type
(available from your Service Provider) and accept the default
parameters for basic Frame Relay connection.
3. On the DLCI tab, enter the DLCI network setting as specified by your
network provided, set Link Type to PPP and the RAS Name to the
name specified on the WAN Port menu.
RAS Name: Select the name of the RAS the link is to use, from the drop-down
list.
