Section 2 - Installation
This section provides information and steps on how to connect your DSR router to your network.
Observe the following precautions to help prevent shutdowns, equipment failures, and injuries:
• Ensure that the room in which you operate the device has adequate air circulation and that the
room temperature does NOT exceed 40˚C (104˚F).
• Allow 1 meter (3 feet) of clear space to the front and back of the device.
• Do NOT place the device in an equipment rack frame that blocks the air vents on the sides of the
chassis. Ensure that enclosed racks have fans and louvered sides.
• Before installation, please correct these hazardous conditions: moist or wet floors, leaks,
ungrounded or frayed power cables, or missing safety grounds.
This section provides basic information about physically connecting the DSR-250 to a network.
1. Connect an Ethernet cable from the port labeled WAN to the external router or modem. The
port WAN is pre-allocated to the WAN network segment.
2. Connect an Ethernet cable from one of the LAN ports to a switch or a computer in the LAN
network segment.
3. Connect an RJ45-to-DB9 cable from the console port for CLI (Command Line Interface)
management access (optional).
Note: Refer to the Quick Installation Guide included with your router for more information on
network connectivity, port, and LED information.
