1 Chapter 1 Introduction This chapter gives the introduction to the AcerRouter 700. What’s in the box? Your AcerRouter 700 box should contain the items listed below.
likely your phone company), you will be given the following information: the type of ISDN switch your phone company is using, and two “directory” numbers associated with the two channels. In the North America, you will also be given two SPID (Service Profile IDentifier) numbers. In North America, the AcerRouter 700 often detects the type of ISDN switch and SPIDs automatically. Outside of North America, SPIDs are not used.
Accessing Servers from the Public Network If you want special servers (e.g., an e-mail server, an FTP server, or a web server) to be accessible by remote users across the Internet, all you need to do is to "apply" for a few “public” IP addresses (from your ISP), assign one of them to the router, and assign one IP address to each server.
Making Regular Voice Calls Using the 700 The AcerRouter 700 supports two types of voice calls through telephones connected to its voice ports. Conventional calls can be placed by simply dialing a standard telephone number. Such a call will occupy a single ISDN B channel for its duration, and will incur the same kind of charges as any other regular phone call. You may also use facsimile devices in this manner.
AcerVoIp system does not support fax over the Internet. When data is sent over a congested and unpredictable public network such as the Internet, it may encounter variable delays and data loss. For time insensitive data, this is acceptable, since delay does not do any harm, and the application software will recover from any data loss by requesting the sender to re-send any lost data. However, this is not the case with time-sensitive data such as voice traffic.
Similarly, when a remote site requests the creation of a tunnel, the AcerRouter 700 will search for an appropriate tunnel profile matching the setup request. Once the tunnel is established, the remote site will initiate a user session to flow through that tunnel and the AcerRouter 700 will search for a matching VPN Connection Profile matching the request. Once found, the AcerRouter 700 will use the information in the matched profile to authenticate the incoming "call", after which data transfer can begin.
servers are assigned public IP address obtained from your ISP, and will be accessible by users across the Internet. However, in order for the LAN to LAN communications to work, the default private network address (192.168.168.0) for one of the above AcerRouter 700 has to be changed (to 192.168.170.0 in the above example).
• 1 power ON/OFF switch The LEDs on the front There are eleven LEDs on the front of the AcerRouter that show the status of the ISDN, Voice and LAN ports. You can tell at a glance if your AcerRouter 700 is functioning properly, and if there is any traffic passing through. Note that LED 11 is dual-colored.
2 Chapter 2 Installing the AcerRouter 700 Now you should be ready to connect your AcerRouter 700 to devices on your LAN and ISDN wall jacks. Follow these steps to install the AcerRouter 700: Step 1 Connect the ISDN cable to the wall jack and the ISDN port on the AcerRouter 700. Step 2 Connect PCs/Workstations or a hub to the AcerRouter’s Ethernet ports. If you are connecting a hub, see “Connecting more devices through a Hub to the AcerRouter 700” later in this chapter.
Setting Up a Windows PC for Configuring the AcerRouter 700 This section describes the configuration required by LAN-attached PCs which communicate with the AcerRouter 700, either to configure the 700, or for network access. These PCs must have an Ethernet interface installed properly, be connected to the AcerRouter either directly or through an external repeater hub, and have TCP/IP installed and configured to obtain an IP address through a DHCP server. Directly connect a Windows 95/98 PC to the AcerRouter.
Step 5 In the new Network Component Type window, select Protocol. Step 6 In the new Select Network Protocol window, select Microsoft in the Manufacturers area. Select Microsoft Select TCP/IP Step 7 In the Network Protocols area of the same window, select TCP/IP, then click OK. You may need your Win95/98 CD to complete the installation. After TCP/IP installation is complete, go back to the Network window shown in Step 4. Step 8 Select TCP/IP in the list of Network Components.
Connecting more Devices through a Hub to the 700 The AcerRouter 700 provides 4 repeater hub ports to allow up to 4 PCs or Workstations to be connected to it directly. If you want to connect more devices, you can connect an external hub to LAN port 1. Connect to Port 1 and set Uplink switch to “Uplink” Plug this end into any port of a 10Base-T repeater hub The uplink switch is used to set LAN port 1 as an uplink port.

It is also used for determining Internet access restrictions (see the section, “Setting In ternet Access Time Restrictions”, below).
screen is used to enter the days of the week and the hours of the day during which Inte rnet access is allowed. The AcerRouter will not connect to the Internet outside of the configured times. In order for this feature to be effective, the AcerRouter must be configured for the cu rrent local time. To do this, see the section, “Setting the System Time”, above. Note, however, that if for some reason the AcerRouter is reset or power-cycled, the previou s time setting will be lost.
4 Chapter 4 Configuring the Voice Adapter The AcerRouter 700 supports 3 POTS (Plain Old Telephone Service) ports. You can attach regular telephones, answering machines, or fax machines to these ports. You can use them for regular phone/fax services when any of the two ISDN channels available is not used for Internet access or other data communication purposes. In addition, if you already purchased the optional AcerVoIP feature (i.e.
phone number. If a AcerRouter 700 and any device that supports this “subaddressing” feature calls each other using this feature (by first dial the main telephone number, then press “*” followed by the extension number), the call can be directly routed to the corresponding extension. For example, if a remote caller with an ISDN phone dials your ISDN number followed by a “*” and the extension number for port A, only the phone that is connected to port A will ring.

BRouters Appendix B Glossary This section provides some common networking terms you may find in this user guide. ARP Table Address Resolution Protocol table, a cache table that contains MAC address to IP address mapping information. To send an IP packet to another device on the same LAN, the source device has to acquire the MAC address of the destination device first. If such information is already maintained in the ARP cache, the corresponding MAC address will be used to transmit the data packet.
Compression The mechanism to reduce the amount of data traffic sent over the WAN by processing each packet and reduce its size before it is sent out to the WAN, and to restore its original content and size when a compressed packet is received from over the WAN. This is so as to save network bandwidth which is relatively scarce and expensive.
IPX Address The network layer address for the IPX protocol, which contains a 4-byte network number (unique for each LAN segment and frame type combination), the 6-byte MAC address of the device, and the 2-byte socket number that maps to the particular application in the device.
