2. Connecting the Net2Phone MAX 410/420/430 to a LAN

Whether your LAN uses DHCP or static addresses, you can set the MAX 410/420/430's LAN
configuration in either of two ways:
??
via a touch-tone keypad, or
??
through a serial connection via the HyperTerminal terminal-emulator application.
Section 2 will explain how to set the MAX 410/420/430's LAN configuration using either method.
NOTE: On a MAX 410, LAN settings must be configured using a PC with a serial cable connection
using the HyperTerminal terminal-emulator application, which is included with all MS operating
systems.
2.1 Connecting the MAX 410/420/430 to a DHCP LAN
Section 2.1 explains how to connect your Web browser to the Net2Phone MAX 410/420/430 if your
LAN uses DHCP addressing. If your LAN uses static IP addresses, skip to Section 2.2, below.
The Net2Phone MAX 410/420/430's default configuration is for DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration
Protocol). Therefore, if your LAN is using DHCP, the Net2Phone MAX 410/420/430's IP address
parameters were configured automatically when you connected it to the LAN. In this case, you only
need to know the IP address that was assigned to the unit by the LAN before you can browse the
MAX Web Manager, MAX 410/420/430's Web-based configuration system. If your LAN is using
DHCP, configuring the Net2Phone MAX 410/420/430 will entail the following steps:
1. Obtain the MAX 410/420/430's current IP address.
2. Log in to the MAX Web Manager.
3. Set the required configuration parameters in the MAX Web Manager.

2.1.1 Obtaining the MAX 420/430's DHCP IP Address via a Telephone Keypad

The handiest way to query the MAX 420's current IP address is usually from a telephone keypad
(if an FXS port is present). To use this procedure you will need a standard analog corded or
cordless touch-tone telephone.
1. Get a pencil and paper to write down the IP address.
2. Connect an analog telephone to any FXS port on the Net2Phone MAX 410/420/430.
3. Pick up the telephone handset and dial
responds, "Your address is..." and the IP address is announced.
4. Write down the address and hang up the telephone. If you need to hear the address again,
hang up the telephone, then repeat step 3.
You are now ready to finish setting up the Net2Phone MAX 410/420/430 using the MAX Web
Manager. Proceed to Section 3, Logging In to the MAX Web Manager.

2.1.2 Connecting to the MAX 410 through a Serial Cable

Although the serial connection allows you to set many of the Net2Phone MAX 410/420/430's
parameters, this section will only explain how to connect to the MAX and obtain its DHCP IP
address. The remaining configuration tasks can then be completed more easily via the MAX
Web Manager.
NOTE: For MAX 410, its LAN settings can only be configured using this method.
