Cyclades-PR1000 Access Router Installation Manual

Cyclades-PR1000

25Chapter 4 - Step-by-Step Instructions

Please read the entire example and follow the instructions before turning the router on. The router is

programmed to log the super user off after 10 minutes of inactivity. All data not explicitly saved to

memory is then lost. Collecting the data

while

configuring the router will likely cause delays and

frustration.

STEP ONE

The first step is to determine the parameters needed to configure the Ethernet interface (ETH0). The parameters

in the Network Protocol Menu (IP) are shown in Figure 4.2. Fill in the blanks for your application in the right-most

column. These parameters will be entered into the router later, after all parameters have been chosen. Each

parameter in this menu is explained in more detail in chapter 5 of the Installation Manual.
