FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION RADIO FREQUENCY
INTERFERENCE STATEMENT
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide
reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential environment. This
equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed
and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio
or TV reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on. The
user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following
measures:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
• Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to
which the receiver is connected.
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
Changes or modifications to this unit not expressly ap proved by ADTRAN will void
the user's authority to operate the equipment.
YEAR 2000 Compliance
All Adtran transmission hardware and software have been tested and found to be
fully compliant with the YEAR 2000 requirements. This is true for all models and
revisions regardless of the date of manufacture or delivery.
Users who wish to independently verify that specific products are in compliance may
contact ADTRAN Technical Support at 1-888-423-8726.
CANADIAN EMISSIONS REQUIREMENTS
This digital apparatus does not exceed the Class B limits for radio noise emissions from
digital apparatus as set out in the interference-causing equipment standard entitled
"Digital Apparatus," ICES-003 of the Department of Communications.
Cet appareil nuerique respecte les limites de bruits radioelectriques applicables aux
appareils numeriques de Class B prescrites dans la norme sur le materiel brouilleur:
"Appareils Numeriques," NMB-003 edictee par le ministre des Communications.
CANADIAN EQUIPMENT LIMITATIONS
Notice: The Canadian Industry and Science Canada label identifies certified equipment. This certification means that the equipment meets certain telecommunications
network protective, operational, and safety requirements. The Department does not
guarantee the equipment will operate to the user’s satisfaction.
Before installing this equipment, ensure that it is permissible to be connected to the facilities of the local telecommunications company. The equipment must also be installed using an acceptable method of connection. In some cases, the company’s inside
wiring associated with a single-line individual service may be extended by means of a
certified connector assembly (telephone extension cord). Compliance with the above
conditions may not prevent degradation of service in some situations.
Repairs to certified equipment should be made by an authorized Canadian maintenance facility designated by the supplier. Any repairs or alterations made by the user
to this equipment, or equipment malfunctions, may give the telecommunications company cause to request the user to disconnect the equipment.
Users should ensure for their own protection that the electrical gr ound connection s of
the power utility, telephone lines, and internal metallic water pipe system, if present,
are connected together. This precaution may be particularly important in rural areas.
Users should not attempt to make such connections them selves, but should contact the
appropriate electric inspection authority, or an electrician, as appropriate.
The Lo ad Number (LN) assigned to each terminal device denotes the per centage of the
total load to be connected to a telephone loop which is used by the device, to prevent
overloading. The termination on a loop may consist of any combination of devices
subject only to the requirement that the total of the Load Numbers of all devices does
not exceed 100.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
When using your telephone equipment, basic safety precautions should always be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock and injury to persons. The precautions
are listed below.
1. Do not use this product near water (for example, near a bath tub, wash
bowl, kitchen sink or laundry tub, in a wet basement or near a swimming
pool).
2. Avoid using a telephone (other than a cordless type) during an electrical
storm. There may be a remote risk of electric shock from lightning.
3. Do not use the telephone to report a gas leak in the vici nity of the leak.
4. Use only the power cord, power supply, and/or batteries indicated in the
manual. Do not dispose of batteries in a fire. They may explode. Check local
codes for any special disposal instructions.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
AFFIDAVIT REQUIREMENTS FOR CONNECTION TO DIGITAL SERVICES

enter the area code and local directory number(s); then press the Enter key over the ExpertISDN
activator.
CONNECTING TO AN INTERNET SERVICE PROVIDER
Internet Access using Network Address Translation (NAT)
1. Connect the 10BaseT cable from the PC’s network card to the Express
4100/4110.
2. Go to the Configuration/Connection List menu, and then press the
right arrow key to place the cursor on the Num column.
3. Type I to insert a new Connection List entry.
4. Using the arrow keys, move the cursor over the Num column for the
inserted entry. Press Enter to place the subentries into the right pane.
5. Set the Description to an identifiable name (i.e., ISP).
6. Go into the Authentication field and select PA P or CHAP for the Tx
Method.
7. Enter your user name and password (provided by your ISP) into the
Tx Username and Tx Password fields.
8. Move the cursor to the left pane and highlight the IP parameters.
9. Set the NAT item to Yes. This is a very important step. The Express
4100/41 10 wi ll need to translate the “ fake” IP addr ess(es) on the PC(s)
to the “real” address provided dynamically by the ISP. See “IP/NAT”
on page 3-18 for more details.
10. All other IP parameters should be left at their default settings. Navigate over to the Dial Out parameters.
11. Enter the number into Number 1. If configured for two B-channel
(PPP Multilink) by the ISP, enter Number 2 if it exists and set Initial
Channels to 2.
12. Arrow left until the message Save Connection List Changes appears.
Type y to save.
13. Go to the Configuration/I P menu and enter an IP address and net
mask into the IP Address and Subnet Mask fields. The factory
default setting will work just as well (10.0.0.1, 255.255.255.0).
14. Go into the Configuration/IP/NAT submenu and set DHCP Mode to
On.
15. Arrow left to save the configuration.
Quick Start-2 Express 4100/4110 User Manual 61200176L2-1
16. Go into the Dial menu.
17. Set the cursor over the Dial parameter for the Connection List profile
you just set up.
18. Press Enter; the Express 4100/4110 will start dialing.
19. If the call is successful, the Status column will read active. If not,
make sure the number(s) are correct or reference “Troubleshooting”
on page 4-1 before going on to the next step.
20. Once the call is up, the PC must generate a DHCP request to obtain
the IP parameters needed to get on the Internet. Refer to your PC’s
user manual or help screen.
MULTIPROTOCOL ROUTING BETWEEN TWO LANS
Remote/Home Office Accessing the Corporate LAN
The following steps can be used to set up the Express 4100/4110 on a
remote LAN to access a corporate or central LAN using demand dial and
dynamic bandwidth management.
1. Connect the 10BaseT cable from the hub to the Express 4100/4110.
2. Set the IP address and Subnet Mask assigned by the network a dministrator in the Configuration/IP menu.
3. For the Default Gateway, enter the IP address of the access server at
the remote site. This creates a default route in the IP routing table
that will be used with the dial-on-demand feature in the Express
4100/4110.
4. Use the arrow keys to get to the Configuration/IPX menu. Set the
Network va lue t o t he IPX network supplied by the network adm in i strator. Set the Seed Status to Seed. Arrow left and save the changes
with a y when prompted.
5. Move to the Configuration/Connection List. Use the arrow keys to
move the cursor over the Num column. Type I to insert a new entry.
6. Move the cursor over the Description field and press Enter. A pop
up window appears in which to enter a name for this Connection List
profile.
7. Move the cursor over the Authentication menu and press Return.
This will place the authentication parameters into the right pane.
8. Enter the username and password under Tx Username and Tx Pass-
word. These items should be provided by the administrator at the
site being dialed.

9. Use the down arrow to display the IP menu parameters in the right
pane.
10. Move the cursor over the Route menu and press Return.
11. Enter the IP address and Netmask parameters of the access server at
the remote site. This creates a static route to the access server’s network which is entered into the Express 4100/4110’s IP route table.
12. Move the cursor over the RIP menu. Check with the network admin-
istrator for the type of routing protocol used. The Express 4100/4110
supports RIP versions 1 and 2. The protocol is set in the Protocol
parameter.
13. Select Yes for the Trig g ered parameter . This will prevent periodic RIP
updates that keep the ISDN link from going “idle.”
14. Select Yes for the Retain parameter. This will allow the routes learned
from the access server to be saved in the IP routing table. Access to
any of those networks from the workstation will cause this profile to
be dialed.
15. Use the left arrow to get back to the previous menu. Use the down
arrow to view the IPX menu parameters in the right pane.
16. This is similar to steps 13 and 14. Select Yes for Tr iggere d and Yes for
Retain. This will allow the ISDN link to go to an idle state and permit
the Express 4100/4110 to “spoof” the server information obtained
from the acc ess server. A similar configuration must be selected on the
access server.
17. Use the arrows to get the Dial Out menu parameters for this profile.
18. Enter the phone number of the access server in Number 1. If configured by the administrator to use two B-channels using Multilink PPP,
set the Initial Channels field to 2. Some PPP protocols, if they exist in
the access server, will allow the second channel to come into play
only if the bandwidth is needed. If this is the case, the Express 4100/
4110 will automatically negotiate this with the access server.
19. Now move to the Bandwidth menu for this profile. Once there, use
the right arrow to move to the On Demand submenu.
20. Set the Mode parameter to On. This enables the dynamic bandwidth
features of the Express 4100/4110.
21. Select the Idle Timeout parameter and enter the number of seconds
the Express 4100/4110 should wait before hanging up the connection
when no traffic is present. A value of 120 seconds is typical. A value
of 0 means never idle the link.

22. All the parameters for this Connection List profile are complete. To
save them, press the left arrow to get to the top (main) menu; when
prompted Save Connection List changes? enter y.
23. Set up the computer workstation’s IP and IPX parameters as
instructed by the network administrator. The Express 4100/4110’s IP
address should be the computer’s default gateway.
When the computer which is attached to the local LAN attempts to access
a host on the access server, the Express 4100/4110 will dial the number
provided in the Connection List profile. The Express 4100/4110 will provide one of two B-channels based on traffic demand and POTS port usage
(Express XLT model only). If no packet traffic is transmitted or received
for the specified number of seconds, the Express 4100/4110 will disconnect the link until a computer on the local LAN again attempts to access a
host on the access server.
If Novell’s IPX protocol is being used, the link must be dialed first in the
Dial menu to obtain the server and route information needed by the co mputer to boot up. Advanced users can use the Express 4100/4110’s Probe
feature to periodically dial the access server to obtain the route and
server information, thereby removing the need to manually dial the first
time.
