System Configuration
This section explains how to configure the
4300T to function in your IP network. You
will configure the T1/E1 WAN interface,
Ethernet interfaces, network addresses,
DNS settings, default gateway, SNMP
settings and change the administrative
password.
A. Physically connect to the 4300T as
described in Administration of
the 4300T.
A browser-based configuration GUI
should appear, as shown here.
B. Select the Network entry in the
Configuration Menu.
Configure the LAN interface
The 4300T provides an integrated 4 port 10/100 Mbps ethernet switch that can be
optionally configured to support 802.1q VLANs. Integrated VLAN support simplifies
the integration of the 4300T with existing VLAN-based networks. The 4300T is able
to receive 802.1q-tagged packets from a downstream VLAN switch and appropriately
route and process them per its firewall rules. Packets received from the WAN are
placed in the appropriate VLAN based on IP address routing.
By default VLANs are not enabled and a single IP address is used for all 4 ethernet
ports. The configuration of this address is as follows:
A. Enter the IP Address.
B. Enter the Subnet Mask (e.g. 255.255.255.0).
C. Press Submit.
Configuring VLANs in the 4300T
As depicted in the diagram below VLANs are used to connect the 4300T to an
ethernet switch that has been configured to use VLANs.
