CHAPTER 1
OVERVIEW
This chapter describes steps for operation of the WPIM-RT1. It also
briefly explains WPIM-RT1 features, ISDN, and indicates where to find
the WAN protocols supported by the WPIM-RT1.
Some of the steps for successful operation of this device are:
• Install the WPIM-RT1 in a Wide Area Network host platform. Refer to
Chapter 2 for direction on installation procedures. Refer to the
appropriate host platform manual (i.e., the Cabletron Systems
CyberSwitch CSX400 and CSX400-DC Installation Guide) for other
installation and troubleshooting procedures.
• Set up and access Local Management. Refer to the appropriate host
platform User’s Guide for instructions on setting up and accessing
Local Management. Refer to
Chapter 3 for Local Management
information for the HSIM-W6 and the CSX400. Refer to the Cabletron
Systems
HSIM-SSA710 User’s Guide for information on setting up the
WPIM-RT1 using management with the HSIM-SSA710.
• Configure the device. Due to the automation of setup features, it is
strongly recommended to use the Graphical User Interface QuickSET.
NOTE
The device in which the WPIM-RT1 is to be installed may be
referred to as the host platform in this documentation.
QuickSET is the desired method for configuring the
WPIM-RT1. Check the Release Notes for the availability of
QuickSET for configuration.
Refer to Chapter 3 to use Local Management to configure the
WPIM-RT1 for the CSX400 and the HSIM-W6, if QuickSET is
not available. Refer to the Cabletron Systems
HSIM-SSA710
User’s Guide to configure the WPIM-RT1 if the HSIM-SSA710
is the host platform.
