TECHNICAL SUPPORT NOTE
Using the GUI to Configure a NetVanta 1224R/STR for Internet Access
using an Ethernet Port (Cable or DSL modem)
Featuring ADTRAN OS and the Web GUI
_____________________________________________________________________________________
Introduction
This Technical Support Note shows how to configure the NetVanta 1224R/STR for an Internet
connection using an ethernet port. In this scenario, you will usually have a separate cable or
DSL modem that will handle the WAN protocol and then provide ethernet to a port on the
NetVanta.
Overview
Configuring the NetVanta 1224R/STR requires an understanding of the VLAN interface model.
VLAN interfaces are used to create directly connected networks on the unit. Ports can then be
defined as members of those VLANs. We will utilize VLAN interfaces to create a WAN and
LAN segment for the 1224R. Next, we will add a default route and use the Firewall Wizard to
setup basic Internet connection sharing (NAPT).
Step 1 – Logging into the unit.
The unit will come from the factory with an IP address of 10.10.10.1 on the default VLAN 1
interface. Set the IP address on your workstation to 10.10.10.2 with a subnet mask of
255.255.255.0 and a default gateway of 10.10.10.1. In this example, we will use the first port as
our Internet access port. Make sure you have an ethernet cable attached from your workstation
to any other free port on the unit. Open a web browser such as Microsoft Internet Explorer and
type in 10.10.10.1 for the URL. You will be prompted for a username and password for which
you should enter "admin" and "password" respectively since this is the factory default. After
successfully entering the username and password, the main GUI page will be displayed.

  • Page 1 _____________________________________________________________________________________ Introduction This Technical Support Note shows how to configure the NetVanta 1224R/STR for an Internet connection using an ethernet port. In this scenario, you will usually have a separate cable or DSL modem that will handle the WAN protocol and then provide ethernet to a port on the NetVanta.
  • Page 2 Step 2 – Setting up the Private VLAN Interface Click the “VLANs” link to setup the IP addresses for the unit. In the following diagrams, we will change the default IP address to 192.168.1.254. Note: When you submit the default IP address change, you will need to change your workstation IP address to match up with the new subnet and reconnect to the NetVanta using the new IP address.
  • Page 3 Change the IP address to 192.168.1.254. After changing the default VLAN interface IP address, be sure to change your workstation IP address to match this network. For example, you could use 192.168.1.1 as your workstation IP address with a default gateway of 192.168.1.254.
  • Page 4 Step 3 – Add a New VLAN for the Public Subnet (Port) The public VLAN will be configured in one of three different modes, (A) IP Routing with a Static IP, (B) IP Routing using DHCP, or (C) PPPoE. DHCP is normally used when connected to a cable modem and PPPoE is often used when connected to a DSL modem set in pass-through or bridge mode.
  • Page 5 (Option A) – IP Routing with a Static IP Configuration. The IP address 100.100.100.2 is used as an example. The IP address information should have been provided to you by your Internet Service Provider (ISP).
  • Page 6 (Option B) – IP Routing Using DHCP. This is a typical cable modem setup.
  • Page 7 (Option C) – PPPoE (ADSL modem set to pass-through mode) Set the Interface Mode to PPPoE and click “Apply”. Clicking “Apply” will open a new page to set PPPoE specific settings.
  • Page 8 (Option C) – PPPoE specific settings A username and password are required for PPPoE. Service Name and AC Name are rarely used but should be entered if provided by the ISP. Peer Authentication type should almost always be set to “None”. Also, PPPoE should be set for “Negotiated” IP address unless the ISP has specified a static IP address.
  • Page 9 Step 4 – Adding a Default Route when using a Static IP Address This step is not required when learning a default route dynamically as in step 3 (option B) when we used DHCP. You need to add a static default route when using IP Routing with a static IP address or PPPoE with a static IP address.
  • Page 10 Step 5 – Assign an Ethernet Port to be a member of the Public VLAN In the example below, we are setting the first Ethernet port as a member of VLAN 100 and setting it to “edgeport” mode to allow this port to come up immediately. This port should be plugged into your Internet connection.
  • Page 11 Step 6-1. The first wizard page is just a warning that this will overwrite any previous firewall settings. Step 6-2. Select the public VLAN interface. In our example, this is VLAN 100.
  • Page 12 Step 6-3. This step will allow you to setup some basic port forwarding. Port forwarding can be done at a later date by adding policies to the “Public” Security Zone. Step 6-4. The final step is to confirm that the default VLAN 1 will share the IP address applied to the public VLAN 100.
  • Page 13 Step 8 – Consult Additional Documentation Additional Documentation is available at doing a search for “ADTRAN OS Web GUI”. There you can find an introduction document for each menu.
