About This Guide
If you are responsible for activating a Bay Networks
®
router on an IP network, this
guide can help you to configure the router’s initial network interface. When you
complete the Quick-Start installation procedure, the router will actively route IP
traffic on your network.
You can use the Quick-Start installation script or the BCC to configure the initial
IP interface over Ethernet on BN
®
and AN
®
routers. In this guide, you will find
instructions for using both the BCC and the Quick-Start installation script to
quick-start a router.
This guide also introduces you to router configuration and can help you to:
• Connect to the router’s embedded tools:
-- The Technician Interface
-- The Bay Command Console (BCC
™
)
• Choose a router configuration tool.
• Secure your router.
• Install the Site Manager configuration tool on a PC or workstation.
The procedures in this book are intended primarily for new installations, but they
are also used in the upgrade procedure. Before using this book as part of an
upgrade, see the upgrade section of the BayRS Version 12.10 Document Change
