4.1 Introduction
This chapter covers procedures for loading the software and configuring your RouteFinder 100 . There are
several paths the software loading process can take depending on the protocol that you are using, whether the
WAN is a real port or one or many virtual ports used in frame relay. The first path that you will see is using
IPX as the protocol and the WAN device providing the access to public telephone service. The second path is
again using IPX, but changing the WAN device to virtual WANs. The third and fourth paths just change the
protocol and follow the same process with the WAN device and virtual WANs.
You will not have to go through all the procedures for any application. The software loading is organized so
that everybody uses the common procedures at the beginning. Then you break off depending on your
protocol. You break off again depending on how your WAN is used. Finally you come back to some common
procedures that every body has to use.
