Managing the router Using Menus

This section describes the minimum configuration parameters required

when setting up the router. Each of the configuration scenarios

requires setting of operational parameters on the router. The built-in

menu system of the router is used to configure the unit.
When navigating around the menu system, a new menu or an option

may be chosen by simply typing the number associated with the option

that you wish to choose. The menu system operates on a “hotkey”

principal. Each menu option may be chosen by simply typing the

number associated with that option. The router will accept the choice

and act on it immediately.
The menu system consists of different menu levels each containing

new configuration options. Navigation back out of a nested menu is

easily accomplished by pressing the tab key. The tab key takes you to

the previous menu level. If you wish to move from your current menu

location directly to the main menu simply press the equals “=” key.
When choosing menu options that will toggle between values, simply

pressing the number associated with that option will cause the options

value to change. Each successive selection of the option will cause the

options value to change.
Some menu options require input from the operator. When selecting

an option that requires a value, the menu system will display the range

of values acceptable and a prompt symbol “>”. Simply enter the new

value at the prompt symbol and press enter. Should you make an error

in entering the new value, the [BACKSPACE] key (for most terminals)

deletes the most recently entered characters.
