What Is Quick-Start; Using The Worksheets - Nortel Remote Access for AN and Passport ARN Routers Configuration Manual

Configuring Remote Access for AN and Passport ARN Routers

What Is Quick-Start?

The Quick-Start procedure is the initial startup configuration, which does the
following:
• Enables IP so that the router can connect to Site Manager
• Starts a locally booted router running on the network
You perform the Quick-Start procedure by running the install.bat script (for an
AN/ANH) or the inst_arn.bat script (for an ARN), and entering information at the
prompts. The router automatically selects options for some prompts, and you can
accept default values for many of the other prompts.
Note: The Quick-Start procedure for the ARN is nearly identical to the
procedure for the AN/ANH. This appendix identifies any major differences;
the hardware installation manuals include model-specific instructions for
running the Quick-Start script.

Using the Worksheets

This appendix includes a series of worksheets to help you organize the network
information you need for your configuration and to answer Quick-Start prompts.
The worksheets contain the options for each prompt and provide space for you to
record the options you select.
Note: The install.bat and inst_arn.bat scripts allow for many possible
configurations. Since typical remote access uses a serial interface over a wide
area connection, the worksheets provide only the options for a serial
configuration. When you configure a LAN interface, base your decisions on
the information provided in each install.bat or inst_arn.bat prompt.
If you are not configuring the router yourself, fill out the worksheets for a person
at the router site and relay the worksheet information. Written for a person at the
router site, the guides Installing and Operating AN and ANH Systems and
Installing and Operating Passport ARN Routers include identical worksheets and
instructions for completing the Quick-Start procedure.
