This chapter describes how to manually set up the OCR 812 for routing or
bridging.
The following steps provide an outline to follow when configuring the OCR 812 to
route or bridge to remote networks.
1 Determine how the OCR 812 will be used (as an IP, IPX Router and/or Bridge) and
gather information about your remote site connection using the Configuration
Planning Forms provided with the unit.
2 Set up a remote site profile for each remote location including Network Service
(PPP/PPPoE/PPPoA/RFC 1483), and WAN configuration.
Set up network (IP, IPX and/or Bridge) information:


Configure the network(s) over the LAN.


Add the network information to the remote site profile(s).


Turn RIP (IP and IPX) and SAP (IPX) on or off as needed for your


configuration.
Add static and framed routes (IP and IPX) or services (IPX) if needed.


3 Optionally, set up DHCP and DNS information.
4 Optionally, perform system administration tasks such as setting the date and time,
providing contact information, adding or changing Web browser or TELNET login
access, and providing TFTP access.
You must assign a system name to the OCR 812 using the SET SYSTEM NAME
<name> command. If you do not assign a system name, the unit may reboot
during PPP operation.
5 Save the configuration.
