Checking the LAN clients (PCs)

Configuration for Windows 98SE/ME/2000/XP

If a connection to the PABX system, or to the Internet can not be set up you can check the configuration of the LAN
clients (PCs) based on the following information.
Note
The procedure described here assumes that you are using the recommended configuration with address as-
signment by DHCP.
The PC is linked to the PABX system via Ethernet (LAN1 jack).
·
Check to ensure that the network adapter (Ethernet adapter, Home Phoneline Networking Adapter or
USB) installed in the LAN client (PC) is connected properly to the PABX system. The connection status is
displayed by the LEDs of the PABX. A description of the LEDs is given in the operator's manual for the
PABX system.
·
Check to ensure that the PABX system has assigned an IP address to the LAN-Client (PC) (see page in secti-
on »Checking the TCP/IP Configuration«).
·
Check to ensure that an Internet service provider (ISP) has been configured in your PABX (see operator's
manual for the PABX, leaflet »On the fast track to the Internet« or the online Help function of your PABX
system).
·
Check to ensure that the Internet browser(s) has(have) been configured correctly in your PC (see Page in
section »Settings im Internet Explorer / Internetoptionen of Windows«).
·
If you have made the settings as described above, the telephone system will establish a connection to the In-
ternet automatically (e. g. by opening the Internet Explorer, inputting an Internet URL and confirming
with "Enter") when requested to do so by an application (default setting).
·
Check to ensure that automatic connection to the Internet has been de-activated (see Configurator Net-
work«, »Internet«); the connection must then be established manually via the elmeg ControlCenter.
The PC is linked to the PABX system via USB.
·
Using the Windows 98SE/ME/2000/XP operating systems you can only run one LAN client (PC) at the USB
port of the PABX system.
·
The required USB driver is installed automatically when you initially connect the PC with the PABX sys-
tem. This driver is located on the CD supplied with the system.
·
After installing the USB driver successfully, follow the procedure for Ethernet LAN clients.
Note
The USB driver supplied with the system (RNDIS) is located in the device manager of the Windows control panel as
a virtual network adapter. Communication between the PABX system and the PC connected via USB is effected via
the TCP-IP protocol. Data for LAN-CAPI are also transferred using this protocol.
