System Configuration and Operation
3.1 Basic Operations
This chapter provides instructions for configuring the integrated access server for operation
after installing it at the equipment site.
Before performing the procedures in this chapter:
1. Be sure your integrated access system is installed and powered up.
2. Determine your system’s specific configuration requirements. These depend on your
network and customer premises equipment (CPE) interfaces. If this configuration information
already exists, obtain it from your system administrator or engineers.
3. Obtain a terminal with VT-100 or VT-102 emulation and an RS-232 cable for these
procedures. The terminal will be connected directly to the Interface card in your system. It
allows you to access the system and then configure it for operation with your network and
CPE.
3.2 System Initialization
System initialization consists of registering your system’s initial configuration and then
logging into it for additional configuration. These operations are described below.
3.2.1 Registration
To register your system after starting it up for the first time, proceed as follows:
1. Be sure your system and local terminal are both powered up.
2. Connect a VT100-compatible terminal to the TERM jack on the Interface card front
panel. Use a cable with an RJ-48 modular plug on one end for this connection.
3. Set up the terminal to operate at 9.6 kbps, 8 data bits, no parity, and 1 stop bit.
4. Press the RETURN key. The Registration Screen of Figure 3-1 appears.
5. Enter your vendor code in the Vendor Code field.
