Ethernet Network employing 10BaseT or 100BaseTX.
TCP/IP protocol.
Use standard LAN cables to connect any existing devices to the Barricade's
LAN (Hub) ports. The Barricade will accept 10BaseT or 100BaseTX, and full
or half duplex. All types may be used simultaneously.
If required, use a standard LAN cable to connect the Barricade's "Uplink" port
to a standard port on another Hub. The other Hub can be either 10BaseT or
100BaseT. Note that if using the "Uplink" port, port 7 on the Barricade can
NOT be used.
If you wish to share a printer, use a standard printer cable to connect the printer
to the Barricade's parallel port.
If you wish to provide shared Internet access via the Barricade, connect your
modem:
If using an Analog Modem or ISDN TA, use a standard serial cable to con-
nect your modem to the Barricade's serial port.
If using an ADSL Modem or Cable modem, connect the modem to the Bar-
ricade's WAN port. Use the cable supplied with your Modem. If no cable
was provided, use a standard LAN cable.
Connect the supplied power adapter to a power outlet and the Barricade.
Press and release the rear-mounted power switch to begin the start-up proce-

During the self-test (2 or 3 seconds), ALL of the LEDs will be ON.
During the boot process, the Ready, Error and Disk Full LEDs will be ON.
Once the boot process is completed, the Ready LED should be ON and the
Error LED should be OFF. If the Error LED stays On, there is a hardware
problem. Repeated beeps also indicate a failure to boot correctly.
