Performing the Initial Configuration
Connecting to Ethernet Ports
You can connect one network interface to the network to use as the Nokia
100i gateway interface. You configure this interface during the system startup
procedure, which is described in Performing the Initial Gateway
Configuration in the Nokia IP VPN Gateway Configuration Guide.
You can also connect the remaining LAN and WAN interface cables at this
point, although you are not required to do so.
After the power is turned on, the Ethernet link LEDs on the gateway and on
remote equipment illuminate to indicate the connection. As data is
transmitted, the activity LEDs on the gateway illuminate.
Ethernet Cables

CAT-5 Ethernet cables.

hub or switch.

After you connect the network interfaces, continue with Performing the Initial
Gateway Configuration in the Nokia IP VPN Gateway Configuration Guide.
