Quick Configuration
This section describes how you can configure the
unit to bridge or route over ISDN links to suit most
networking requirements using a simple forms-based
user interface. If you want to connect to a remote
site using leased line WAN links see
“Setting Up a
WAN Link”
on
page 1-29
.
If you are unsure about the networking configuration
you require, see
“Examples of Typical ISDN
Networking Applications”
on
page 1-31
for more
information.
IMPORTANT
The Quick Configuration menu option is
designed to be used only when you set up the unit for
the first time. If you want to make any changes to the
unit’s configuration at a later stage, you should use
the management system menus to make these
changes. For more information, see the Software
Reference guide.
