software installed depends on the software package that you purchased.
You can use one of the following tools to configure your gateway router:
•

Web browser. QuickWeb software resides on your router.

router’s configuration.
Connecting to the 3000 Series
The 3000 Series comes with a preconfigured LAN IP address of 192.168.1.1
set to its fixed Ethernet port. If there is a Dynamic Host Configuration
Protocol (DHCP) server on your network, your router receives its IP address
dynamically from the server.
To configure your 3000 Series, you can
•
Connect to the 3000 Series over your Ethernet network. You can then run
Telnet to IP address 192.168.1.1, which is the preconfigured address of
the fixed Ethernet port.
•
Connect a PC to the 3000 Series console port. You can then connect to the
3000 Series using a terminal emulator. See
