1 GENERAL INFORMATION The DS73 peripheral communications module supports remote access to TCP/IP Ethernet networks by using the DSSeries Data Switch with a modem module installed. Remote users can dial into the DS-Series unit and connect to network hosts from anywhere, at anytime. Both remote in-band and out-of-band management is available by using one DS-Series data switch. Use the DS73 module for in-band network management, and use the DS74, EIA-232 module for out-of-band management.
3 CABLING--10BASE-T CONNECTION Connect a RJ-45 cable between the RJ-45 port and the network hub. The modular port is defined as DTE (i.e., Pin 1 is TD+, Pin 2 is TD-, Pin 3 is RD+, and Pin 6 is RD-). Most RJ-45 network hubs will require a straight cable type. The LINK (link integrity) LED on the back panel and at the connected port on the hub will illuminate if there is a good connection between the DS73/DS73TP and the hub. CAUTION: Power should be turned off when cables are being installed.
c. Click-on “TCP/IP” settings. Enable the following settings when appropriate. Unique addresses can be selected depending on your specific application. The “IP Header Compression” must be enabled. 1. Server Assigned IP Address 2. Server Assigned Name Server Address 3. Use IP Header Compression 4. User default gateway on remote network and click-on OK. 3. Return to the Dial-up Networking Screen and select the new device that you are adding. 4.

5.1 MODULE IP ADDRESS Type “1” (Module IP Address), at the end of the main configuration menu to program the IP address. The DS73 will respond with: Enter Module IP address in dotted decimal form: Enter the desired Module IP address as a series of four numbers separated by periods (e.g., 197.3.14.9), followed by a Carriage Return. IMPORTANT: The Module IP address must be programmed before the DS73 module can be accessed on the network.
5.6 SECONDARY DNS Type “6”(Secondary DNS) at the end of the main configuration menu to program the Secondary Domain Name Server(DNS). The DS73 will respond with: Enter Primary DNS address in dotted decimal form: Enter the desired Secondary DNS address as a series of four numbers separated by periods (e.g., 0.0.0.0.), followed by a Carriage Return. 5.7 PRIMARY NBNS Type “7”(Primary NBNS) at the end of the main configuration menu to program the Primary Net BIOS Name Server(DNS).
5.11 MODULE NAME Type “11”(Module Name) at the end of the main configuration menu to program the DS73 module name. The module name is the name reported by the module upon connection. The DS73 will respond with a menu similar to the following: Current module name: DS73 Enter Password (8 chars max): Type the desired module name up to eight ASCII characters in length. Press to return to the main configuration menu. 5.
