1.2.1 Server LAN Port
Connect this port to the Server LAN switch or hub. This port connects to the servers and
your local computers. It is the right most RJ45 socket. In Out-of Path configuration, this is the
only port that needs to be connected. If your switch is capable of LACP (or port channel),
you can connect both the Internet and Server ports and they will behave as a single port (Out-
of-Path mode ONLY).
1.2.2 Backup WebMux Port
Optionally, you may connect another WebMux to this port so that you can have redundancy.
Connect them using a cross over cable, or a regular cable with a hub or switch in between.
1.2.3 Router LAN (Internet) Port
Connect this port to the Router LAN switch or hub. In most situations, this port connects to
the Internet side network in NAT mode. It is the left most RJ45 Socket.
Note The Router LAN and Server LAN port are not interchangeable.
1.2.4 External Modem Connect Port
To utilize the phone pager function of the WebMux, please connect the external modem to
this port. In some cases, if you prefer support engineers to not use diagnostic ports over the
Internet, our support engineers can also connect through the modem to assist you with setup
issues. A US Robotics V.Everything modem is required: US Robotics part number 3CP3453.
Modem dip switch has 3, 8, and 10 down, rest up. A standard external modem cable is also
needed. Check with your modem supplier for the cable.

switch is disabled.
