Introduction
This chapter describes how to make changes in the configuration of the RouteFinder’s software and
discusses the impact of the changes. The major configuration parameters were set during the loading
of the software (Chapter 3). The RouteFinder software and configuration utilities allow you to make
changes to the initial configuration.
The RouteFinder Configuration utility enables you to setup and configure various parameters of the
RouteFinder’s protocol stacks and device drivers. You also have the option to perform basic hardware
testing and run the console terminal from this menu.
The other six utilities provide additional functionality. The Download Default Setup utility allows you
to download the default settings, configured during installation, to the RouteFinder. If you are installing
for the first time, you will download this setup at the end of the installation before operating the
RouteFinder. If you have made changes to the RouteFinder Configuration and now want to revert to the
default setup, you can do so through the RouteFinder program group. The Download firmware utility
enables you to download the firmware to the RouteFinder. This may be necessary in the case of repair
or upgrade. The Configuration port setup utility allows you to change the method by which you
access your RouteFinder. You can establish a direct connection, a PC to the Command port, or
through your network connection to the LAN port. The WAN Device Configuration utility opens the
Print Console, a terminal emulation program that enables configuration of external devices connected
to the WAN 2 port. The Remote User Data Base utility (supported through the Command port) allows
you to establish and maintain a database of information about your remote users. You can add and
remove remote users, or edit existing user information in the database. Remote User Data Base is
supported only if WAN 2 is configured for a Dial-in application (Refer to Appendix D for the procedure).
The Uninstall utility enables you to completely remove all the components of the RouteFinder-T1
program group.
