How To Set up your AT-AR440S ADSL Router for Typical Network Scenarios Introduction This guide has been written to help you get your AT-AR440S ADSL router up and running as quickly as possible. It describes a basic Internet access and Firewall protection configuration, and references other advanced solutions. This guide complements the other documentation available for the AT-AR400 router series.

Gathering your connection information Gather the information you require to configure the ADSL connection. There are several configuration parameters whose values you must ascertain from the ADSL service provider. The values for these parameters will depend on the particular implementation of ADSL being used by your network provider.
PAGE 3
Determining your ADSL connection parameters The table below is provided for you to fill in the connection parameters for your ADSL Service Provider and ISP. Typically, the provider will specify the parameters on the printed material that they give you when you sign up for their service. But if you have not been given any such material, you should contact your providers technical support help desks or Websites to determine their requirements.

Setting up a Windows based PC for initial GUI configuration connection Introduction AR400 Series routers can be configured via the Command Line Interface (CLI) or Graphical User Interface (GUI). We recommend starting to configure the router using the GUI. You can then use the CLI if necessary to complete your configuration. This section describes how to access the GUI via a switch VLAN port on the router. The GUI requires a PC and Web browser.

By-passing or disabling any Web proxy settings To access this local GUI server, you might need to define a proxy bypass setting or temporarily disable any Web proxy settings you may have defined in your Web browser. To do this with Internet Explorer, click on: Tools >Internet Options >Connections >LAN Settings The Local Area Network window will open. You can either ensure "bypass proxy server for local addresses" is set, or temporarily remove the proxy definitions you have.

Getting started 1. Open your Web browser and type in the router’s address. 2. Enter a username and password. When you have accessed 192.168.1.1, you will be prompted for a username and password for logging into the router. Here is the factory default username and password for management and configuration access, for Telnet, GUI, and console port access: User Name: manager Password: friend 3.

Changing your password In the router’s GUI menu select: 1. Management > Users 2. In the right hand pane, select the Users radio button, then click Modify 3. Make your modifications and click Apply.

Using the GUI to configure the router On first use of the GUI only, you will be taken directly to the Quick Start ADSL setup page. Here you can quickly configure your ADSL basics. You should start by selecting your country setting. This will automatically change the connection protocol and ATM profile for your country's pre-configured default. Some countries offer many different connection types, so you still need to check to see if these settings are correct for your ADSL Provider’s requirements.
PAGE 9
ATM settings If the ATM settings are not correct for your ADSL Provider, you can correct them using the VPI, VCI and Encapsulation fields at the bottom of the page. In our example below, you can see the default VPI and Encapsulation settings for the UK are zero and 38 respectively. If applicable you should also add your PPP username and password, or your static IP address. You will notice that when selecting PPPoA or PPPoE that the IP address fields are "greyed out", because dynamic allocation is assumed.

After completion click the Apply button. Then the following summary screen will be displayed. At this point, the router should be able to connect successfully to your ISP, using the basic configuration items you defined plus the default firewall and NAT configuration. If you need to alter your ADSL configuration in the future, you can do so by accessing the page invoked from clicking on: Configuration>Layer 2>ADSL.

Saving your configuration At this point it would be a good idea to save your configuration work. To do this, select Save from the GUI menu. To save your configuration: 1. Select the New radio button and type adsl in the space provided 2. Tick the box next to Use this config at bootup 3. Click Continue The router will now go through a few stages and save the configuration. This can take approximately 30 seconds. The router setup is now complete. © 2004 Allied Telesyn International Corp.
