Chapter 3 Installation This chapter describes how to install and prepare the Foundry AR1202 and AR1204 router for operation. Information is also provided describing the system front and back panels, operator interface, how to mount the chassis, and how to connect network and power cables. Before you install the AR1202 and AR1204, familiarize yourself with the network interface and power connections described in this chapter.
Foundry AR-Series AR1202 and AR1204 Installation Guide Power Requirements The AR1202 and AR1204 router operates on 12 VDC power. A 12 VDC power supply and an AC power cord are shipped with the router. Network Connection To successfully complete the installation, the router must be connected to a network. Before you start the installation, make sure that a live network connection is available at the installation site. Cables Required The AR1202 and AR1204 router ships with a Console cable.
Installation Unpacking and Inspecting After opening the shipping carton, remove and save all packing materials and boxes. NOTE: Save the packing materials. If you need to return the product, you will need to repack the unit with the original packing material. Check the packing slip and contents of the shipping carton to ensure that you have received the following items. Figure 3.

Coil the excess cable and secure it on the tray behind the router. 10. Mount the tray in the equipment rack using either four (provided) Phillips pan head 10-24 x .5 inch screws or four (provided) Phillips pan head 12-32 x .5 inch screws, whichever fits the equipment rack. 11.
Installation 2. Insert the RJ-48C connectors on the other ends of the cables in the WAN ports on the front panel of the Foundry router. Make sure that the cable connectors are locked and secure in the ports. See Table A.9 on page A-6 for pinout information about this cable. Figure 3.12 Connecting the WAN Cable Connect to Service Provider’s Demarcation Point WAN Port 1 Connecting Drop and Insert Cables WAN ports 1 and 2 can alternatively be used for drop and insert traffic.
Foundry AR-Series AR1202 and AR1204 Installation Guide 1. Connect the RJ-45 Console cable to the Console port on the router. 2. Connect the other end of the RJ-45 Console cable to the RJ-45 end of the adapter. 3. Connect the DB-9 end on the adapter to the management terminal or workstation. Figure 3.
Chapter 4 Configuration This chapter describes how to login; change the default password, configure the router and users, and change the factory default configuration. The boot process and software upgrade process is also discussed in detail. Logging In If you have not established a local console connection, see “Operator Interface” on page 3-9 for more information. The following figure shows the login sequence and the initial prompt after login is complete. Figure 4.
Foundry AR-Series AR1202 and AR1204 Installation Guide Ethernet Configuration Tip To avoid Ethernet mismatch problems, the AR1202 and AR1204 router and the network device to which it is attached should both be configured identically for speed and duplex. For example, if the router is configured for auto-negotiation and the far end is configured manually, the router detects the speed, but defaults to half-duplex mode.
Configuration NOTE: Changing the administrator login name does not change the administrator’s password. Use the password procedure to change the password. System Host Name Use the configure hostname command to assign a host name to the Foundry router. Once assigned, the host name becomes the command line interface (CLI) prompt name. To configure the host name: 1. Access the terminal configuration mode: Foundry-AR1204# configure term 2. Type hostname, and then type a new host name. 3. Press Return.
Foundry AR-Series AR1202 and AR1204 Installation Guide example: Foundry-AR1204/configure# user John level 2 The system prompts you to enter a new password. 3. Enter the new password. The system prompts you to re-enter the new password. 4. Re-enter the new password. The system confirms that the password is set and confirms the name of the added user. You can use the display user_accounts command to view user information.
Configuration Table 4.1: Default Configuration Values Parameter Default speed auto (negotiates 10 Mbps or 100 Mbps) address uses the current address stored in the system.cfg file (if one exists), otherwise an IP address must be configured from the command line interface duplex auto (negotiates half-duplex or full-duplex) Table 4.

Contact Foundry and provide the serial number for the router.
Configuration A software upgrade consists of two files: AR01_#### and T1000.bin. The .Z file is the operating system for the Foundry system; the .bin file contains the downloadable boot images. NOTE: Foundry systems do not support two simultaneous downloads. NOTE: Refer to the appropriate Command Reference Guide (domestic or international products) for specific command parameters, options, and context.
Foundry AR-Series AR1202 and AR1204 Installation Guide Booting From a Network TFTP Server In the rare and unlikely situation where a software version upgrade fails, a network boot may be performed as described in the following procedure. 1. Assume that the new AR01_#### download failed when the following command was issued: Router# file download 192.168.10.1 tftpdir/8.0/AR01_#### This command line is appropriate when the new upgrade AR01_#### file resides on a tftp server host with IP address 192.168.10.
Configuration The following text is output to the terminal: host name : host 10. To keep this parameter, press the Enter key. The following text is output to the terminal: file name : /flash1/T2000.Z 11. Enter the path-qualified file name: type /tftpdir/r4.6/AR01_#### (or whatever is consistent with the file download command in the above example) and press the Enter key. The following text is output to the terminal: 1net on ethernet [e] : 10.1.0.1:fff0000 12.
Foundry AR-Series AR1202 and AR1204 Installation Guide The following text is output to the terminal: flags [f] : Ox8a Set the target name. Press the Enter key. The following text is output to the terminal: target name [tn] :T1200 The name that you use to configure the Foundry router will become the system prompt. Ensure that the startup script parameter is blank. The “other” parameter may be blank or left as “inPci.
