Collecting Ethernet Setup Information - Planet IRT-1001ST User Manual

♦ B Channel Usage—Determine which connection is appropriate
for your B channel and check the corresponding option on the
worksheet.
If your IRT-1001 or IRT-1002 is the only device using the ISDN line,
configure B Channel Usage to Switch/Switch so the router device
will use both B channels to communicate. If the router is sharing the
ISDN line with other devices, configure B Channel Usage to
Switch/Unused. If your IRT-1001 or IRT-1002 is on a leased line,
configure B channel usage to Leased/Leased or Leased/Switch,
depending on the setting of the line.
♦ Telephone Number(s)—Record on the worksheet the telephone
number(s) given to you by your ISDN provider. Some switch types
only have one telephone number. These phone numbers should
be in a standard digit format (for example, 5551212). Note that
these fields will only accept digits, so dash "—" and spaces will
not be accepted.
♦ SPID Number(s)—(For North America only) The SPID (Service
Profile Identifier) is a number used by a central office switch for
identification purposes. With the switch information, see the
previous table for the number of SPIDs you must enter.
You have now collected all of the necessary information about your
ISDN phone line. Make sure that these values are entered into your
worksheet before you continue to the next section. For DSS1 and 1TR6
ISDN, refer to the install chapter starting on page 18.

Collecting Ethernet Setup Information

This section assumes that you are setting up your router for a TCP/IP
connection. If you want to configure the system for other protocols (e.g.,
IPX), refer to the appropriate chapters.
♦ Ethernet Interface—Your IRT-1001 or IRT-1002 is equipped with
an NWay auto-sensing 10/100-Mbps port. Just plug in the cable,
and the router will automatically determine the network speed (10
Mbps or 100 Mbps) and mode (full or half duplex) based on the
capability and configuration of the attached device.
