Codian IP Gateway Getting Started Guide

Initial configuration

Step one: Configure Ethernet Port A settings

The default setting for the ISDN gateway Ethernet ports is auto-sensing mode. If the

switch ports to which you connect the ISDN gateway are not also set to auto-sensing

mode, then you need to configure the ISDN gateway Ethernet ports to use the same

speed and duplex mode.

To configure Ethernet Port A, log in to the Supervisor’s web interface and go to

Hardware > Blades. For more information about configuring the port, refer to the

online help accessible from the Supervisor’s web interface.

Step two: Assign an IP address to the ISDN gateway

You can use the Supervisor’s web interface to configure the IP addresses of all blades

installed in the MSE 8000. Note that all blades are supplied with DHCP enabled. You

can either keep this setting or assign static IP addresses to a blade from the

Supervisor’s web interface. To view or configure the IP address of the ISDN gateway,

Hardware > Blades. To access the web interface of

the ISDN gateway, go to

Hardware > Blades and click the IP address of that blade.

Only connect to Ethernet Port A. Ethernet Port B is reserved for future

expansion; do not connect anything to Ethernet Port B.

Both ends of the Ethernet connection must be configured in the same

way. For example, either configure both ends of the link to be auto-

sensing or configure both ends to operate at the same speed and duplex.

To establish a 1000Mbps connection, both ends of the link must be

configured as auto-sensing.
