Planning Your Router's Configuration
Configuration Process and Terminology
During configuration, you specify information identifying your CyberSWITCH 100 and define the
LAN and WAN connections to your CyberSWITCH 100. The simplest type of configuration is the
QuickSET Express Step-by-Step Configuration (normally used for a single connection to a
service provider). This configuration process is covered in detail in the Read Me First! document
on your hard disk in the directory where you installed QuickSET, under the filename
README.PDF. You must have installed the documentation to view this document.
The following definitions and screen figures describe the data that you will have to enter in the
various QuickSET Custom Step-by-Step Configuration screens. The location of all of the
remote routers to which this device may connect are added to a database called the remote router
database that resides in the CyberSWITCH 100.
Each remote router entry in the database defines the connection parameters, security features,
route addressing, and bridging function for the remote router. Routing and bridging are controlled
by specific remote router entry information as well as general controls that are set during
configuration.
Custom Step-by-Step Configuration

Collect Network Information

Before you begin, you need to obtain information about the network to which you are adding the
CyberSWITCH 100. Some of the information is obtained from your central site or remote site
network administrator. Other information is obtained from your ISDN service provider.
The following sections contain diagrams and tables to help you gather and organize this
information.
