1. This device may not cause interference, and

2. This device must accept any interference, including interferen ce that may
cause undesired operation of the device.

Cet appareil numérique de la classe B est conforme à la norme NMB-003 Canada.
Pour réduire le risque d’interférence aux autres utilisateurs, le type d’antenne
et son gain doivent être choisies de façon que la puissance isotrope
rayonnée équivalente (PIRE) ne dépasse pas ce qui est nécessaire pour une
communication réussie.
Cet appareil est conforme à la norme RSS Industrie Canada exempts de licence
norme(s).

Son fonctionnement est soumis aux deux conditions suivantes:

1. Cet appareil ne peut pas provoquer d’interférences et

2. Cet appareil doit accepter toute interférence, y compris les interférences

Note:

A malfunction is any error of internal sequence or state that will prevent the device
from connecting to the DSLAM or passing customer data. This may be identified at
various times such after power on or during operation through the use of sel f testing
or in operations which result in a unit state that is not expected or should not occur.

a static IP address is configured, PPP negotiation has successfully complete – if
used – and DSL is up ) and no traffic detect ed. If the IP or PPPoE sessi on is dropped
for any other reason, the light is turned off. The light will turn red when it attempts
to reconnect and DHCP or PPPoE fails.

Chapter 3 Web User Interface

This section describes how to access the device via the web user interface (WUI)
using an Internet browser such as Internet Explorer (version 5.0 and later).

3.1 Default Settings

The factory default settings of this device are summarized below.

 LAN IP address: 192.168.1.1
 LAN subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
 Administrative access (username: root, password: 12345)
 User access (username: user, password: user)
 Remote (WAN) access (username: support, password: support)
 WLAN access: enabled

Technical Note

During power on, the device initializes all set tings to default values. It will then

read the configuration profile from the permanent storage section of flash memory .
The default attributes are overwritten when identical attributes with di fferent values
are configured. The configuration profile in permanent storage can be created via
the web user interface or telnet user interface, or other management protocols.
The factory default configuration can be res tored either by pushing the reset button
for more than ten seconds until the power indicates LED blinking or by clicking the
Restore Default Configuration option in the Restore Settings screen.

15

3.2 IP Configuration

DHCP MODE

When the VR-3053 powers up, the onboard DHCP server will switch on. Basically,
the DHCP server issues and reserves IP addresses for LAN devices, suc h as your PC.

To obtain an IP address from the DCHP server, follow the steps provided below.

NOTE: The following procedure assumes you are running Windows. However,

the general steps involved are similar for most operating systems (OS).
Check your OS support documentation for further details.

STEP 1: From the Network Connections window, open Local Area Connection (You

may also access this screen by double-clicking the Local Area Connectio n
icon on your taskbar). Click the Properties button.

STEP 2: Select Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) and click the Properties button.
STEP 3: Select Obtain an IP address automatically as shown below.

STEP 4: Click OK to submit these settings.

If you experience difficulty with DHCP mode, you can try static IP mode instead.

16

STATIC IP MODE

In static IP mode, you assign IP settings to your PC manually.
Follow these steps to configure your PC IP address to use subnet 192.168.1.x.

NOTE: The following procedure assumes you are running Windows. However,

the general steps involved are similar for most operating systems (OS).
Check your OS support documentation for further details.

STEP 1: From the Network Connections window, open Local Area Connection (You

may also access this screen by double-clicking the Local Area Connectio n
icon on your taskbar). Click the Properties button.

STEP 2: Select Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) and click the Properties button.
STEP 3: Change the IP address to the 192.168.1.x (1<x<255) subnet with subnet

mask of 255.255.255.0. The screen should now display as shown below .

STEP 4: Click OK to submit these settings.

17

3.3 Login Procedure

Perform the following steps to login to the web user interface.

NOTE: The default settings can be found in 3.1 Default Settings.

STEP 1: Start the Internet browser and en ter the default IP address for the device

in the Web address field. For example, if the default IP address is

192.168.1.1, type http://192.168.1.1.

NOTE: For local administration (i.e. L AN access), the PC running the browser

must be attached to the Ethernet, and not necessarily to the device.

STEP 2: A dialog box will appear, such as the one below. Enter the default

username and password, as defined in section 3.1 Default Settings.

Click OK to continue.

18

STEP 3: After successfully logging in for the first time, you will reach this screen.

Appendix B - SSH Client

Unlike Microsoft Windows, Linux OS has a ssh client included . For Wi ndows users,
there is a public domain one called “putty” that can be downloaded from here:

http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/download.html

To access the ssh client you must first enable SSH access for the LAN or WAN from
the Management  Access Control  Services menu in the web user interface.

To access the router using the Linux ssh client
For LAN access, type: ssh -l root 192.168.1.1

For WAN access, type: ssh -l root WAN IP address

To access the router using the Windows “putty” ssh client
For LAN access, type: putty -ssh -l root 192.168.1.1

For WAN access, type: putty -ssh -l root WAN IP address

NOTE: The WAN IP address can be found on the Device Info  WAN screen
