Chapter 1 Introduction
The powerful bintec R232a, bintec R232aw, bintec R232b and bintec R232bw gateways
enable you to connect small networks in a cost-effective way and connect your individual
workstation or small company to the internet and to other partner networks (e.g. a company
head office).
This chapter describes the outstanding features your new bintec gateway offers. It
provides you with an overview of the ways in which your bintec gateway can be used. This
chapter also tells you about the structure and contents of this manual.
Safety precautions
The safety precautions, which are supplied with your device, tell you what you need to take
into consideration when using your bintec gateway.
Installation
How to connect your device is shown in Installation on page 9. This chapter also tells you
what preliminary tasks are necessary for configuration.
1 Introduction
Configuration
How to get your device running is explained in Configuration on page 13. There we show
you how to start up your device within a few minutes from a Windows PC with the help of a
Configuration Wizard and how to install other useful online assistants. At the end of the
chapter, you will be in a position to surf the Internet, send or receive e-mails and set up a
connection to a partner network to access data at your company head office, for example.
Password
If you are already familiar with configuring bintec devices and want to get started right
away, all you really need to know is the factory default user name and password.
User Name: admin
Password: funkwerk
Caution
Remember to change the password immediately when you log in to the device for the
first time. All bintec devices are supplied with the same password, which means they
are not protected against unauthorised access until you change the password. How to
change the passwords is described in chapter Passwords on page 88.
The next chapters describe the technical data and further access and configuration options
for your bintec device. The subsequent chapters contain a complete reference of all configuration options of the Funkwerk Configuration Interface. This manual concludes with a
glossary and then an index.
Workshops
Application-related, step-by-step instructions for the most important configuration tasks can
be found in a separate section of the manual bintec R230a/R230aw/R232b/R232bwWorkshops.
1.1 Possible Applications
Connecting networks
Gateways are used to interconnect networks and to exchange information between the networks. For example, you can use your device to establish a connection to the network of
your Internet Service Provider and use the usual Internet services, such as the World Wide
Web (WWW) or e-mail.
Access to head office
By connecting to another partner network, e.g. your company’s head office, from your
home or branch office, you can conveniently access any information you may need from
the head office, even if this is hundreds of miles away. These local networks are connected
via an ISDN (only bintec R232a, R232b and R232bw) or DSL connection. The size of your
own local network – whether it consists of several computers or just one workstation – is irrelevant.
Your gateway is your link to the outside world
Every device serves as a link between the individual local networks. Within each LAN, the
gateway is connected to the network like a normal computer. Its task is to transmit information as necessary from its own network to an external network (e.g. to the network of your
Internet Service Provider or your head office) and to find the most suitable routes for transmission. Conversely, it receives information and routes it to its own network.
One gateway for everyone
If you have a local network with several computers, you only need one single gateway to
allow all computers in the network access to the Internet or the head office. The lower expenditure on equipment and administration for several computers in the network means
substantial savings. If you used ISDN cards or modems, every workplace would have to be
equipped separately.
2bintec R200 Series
Funkwerk Enterprise Communications GmbH
High-speed Internet access
If you configure high-speed Internet access with the bintec gateway, all the users in the
local network profit from faster Internet access. The bandwidth used permits considerably
faster Internet applications than conventional ISDN or modems.
Automatic dialling and disconnection
Once configured, your device decides independently if and how it is to set up a connection
to the Internet Service Provider. If you enter an external WWW address in your browser, for
example, your gateway determines that the requested address lies outside your own LAN
and establishes a connection to your Internet Service Provider and the Internet automatically. To help you save costs, your gateway disconnects the connection after a predefined
time (short hold) if no more information is exchanged.
Simple data access
If suitably configured, your device enables you to conveniently access data at another site,
e.g. your head office. While running Windows, for example, you can connect a network
drive to a computer at your head office. You then simply click the icon for this link in Windows Explorer and can surf in the directories and data of the remote computer just as if you
were using your own hard disk. Your gateway takes care of setting up and clearing the connection.
1 Introduction
Security/firewall/DynDNS
Your gateway is provided with integrated firewall mechanisms and therefore provides extensive, low-cost features to meet all the requirements for access security. It protects your
network against unauthorised external access. This is achieved with functions such as
NAT, encryption, filters, monitoring and a Stateful Inspection Firewall.
The Stateful Inspection Firewall (SIF) offers effective protection against attacks from the Internet through dynamic packet filtering. Firewall handling is made easier through numerous
pre-configured services. To be able to find partners in spite of dynamic IP addresses, the
devices support the DynDNS function. The implemented function enables you to use the
DynDNS service of leading DynDNS providers, and some providers have been preset. The
security features of the device also include optional web filtering (there is an extra charge
for this, 30-day test version included). Here, all the outgoing Internet enquiries are classified, allowing unwanted contents to be reliably filtered out.
Other security features
With the scheduling function of the devices, times can be defined in which users are granted individual rights, such as for Internet access. The VLAN function of the devices allows
the allocation of users to virtual subnetworks and offers an additional degree of security.
All devices offer the possibility of configuring a "Demilitarised Zone" (DMZ). This is a separate network located between the internal LAN and the Internet. The DMZ is the place for all
services that have to make direct contact with the Internet. If a web or mail server in the
DMZ is attacked, this has no effect on the security of your internal network.
IP Telephony
The application level gateway allows IP telephones in the LAN to establish a connection
with SIP providers without neglecting the security of the WAN connection. To do this, the
SIP proxy monitors the signalling process between IP telephone and SIP provider and
makes the necessary NAT and firewall releases dynamically for the duration of the communication.
Wireless LAN
The wireless interface of the bintec R230aw and bintec R230bw transfers the data at
max. 54 mbps (802.11g) and is compatible with the 11 mbps variant 802.11b in the same
frequency range. Encryption via the WLAN interface can take place via WPA and WPA2.
Virtual WLAN interfaces can be defined via multi-SSID. This means that different rules of
access to the WLAN can be implemented, e.g. to log in internal personnel and external visitors. The Express Setup Wizard is used for simple WLAN configuration.
IPSec
Both devices have a powerful IPSec implementation and have with two active VPN tunnel
licenses ex works. In addition to encryption via AES or 3DES, the devices offer authentication via certificates or preshared keys. In order to optimise the encrypted traffic flow, it can
be compressed using IPComp. The Dead Peer Detection function allows the availability of
the tunnel endpoint to be checked and restores it if inactive. NAT Traversal is also supported, as is the connection of RADIUS or TACACS+ for authentication.
Configuration and maintenance
A number of options are available for configuring your gateway. Configuration with the Express Setup Wizard, Funkwerk Configuration Interface or Setup Tool is independent ofthe operation system. The easiest way to configure the device is by using the Express
Setup Wizard. This configuration assistant guides you through the configuration step by
step and helps you to make the most important settings on your device. Your device is
ready for operation in just a few minutes.
Remote maintenance
The bintec R230a, bintec R230b and bintec R230bw models can also be configured and
maintained remotely. As soon as your device is connected to the ISDN - even in its ex
works state - configuration settings can be made from another location (e.g. by the administrator at head office). This means you can have someone at head office configure the
4bintec R200 Series
Funkwerk Enterprise Communications GmbH
system.
Models
The bintec R230a and bintec R230aw are the successors to the X2301/X2301w gate-
ways. The bintec R232bw second generation includes the first device without a WLAN
function, namely new model bintec R232b.
All four models offer the same features as their predecessors, plus hardware and software
enhancements.
Extra memory and new software features make these devices flexible IP access routers
with an integrated ADSL modem (R232a/aw with annex A, R232b/bw with annex B) and
4-port switch. The support of ADSL2+ allows a high-performance WAN connection and permits download rates of up to 24 mbps. A SIP Proxy controls the transparent communication
with SIP providers, so that the device can be used in VoIP scenarios such as Internet telephony.
bintec R230aw and bintec R230bw also offer WLAN functionality. The WLAN function allows flexible use in wireless environments.
1 Introduction
In addition to a 4-port switch and a further Ethernet port for the LAN/WAN connection, the
bintec R230b and bintec R230bw have an ISDN interface for automatic backup or remote
dial-in.

2 Quick Install Guide
2.5Configuration
In this chapter, you will learn how to prepare the configuration, carry out the configuration,
make adjustments to the PC configurations in the network if necessary and test the connection when the configuration has been completed.
2.5.1 Preparations
To prepare for configuration, you need to...
• have the data for the basic configuration and the Internet connection to hand and also
gather the data needed for connecting the required WLAN clients.
• check whether the PC from which you want to perform the configuration meets the necessary requirements.
You can also...
• install the BRICKwaresoftware, which provides more tools for working with your device.
This installation is optional and not essential for the configuration or operation of the
device.
You can gather the main data for basic configuration with the Express Setup Wizard
quickly, as you do not require any information that needs in-depth network knowledge. If
necessary, you can use the example values.
Before you start the configuration, you should gather the data for the following purposes:
• Basic configuration (obligatory if your device is in the ex works state)
• Internet access (optional)
• Wireless LAN (optional, only for bintec R230aw and bintec R232bw)
• Company network connection (optional).
The following tables show examples of possible values for the necessary data. You can
enter your personal data in the "Your values" column, so that you can refer to these values
later when needed.
If you configure a new network, you can use the given example values for IP addresses
and netmasks. In cases of doubt, ask your system administrator.
Basic configuration
For a basic configuration of your gateway, you need information that relates to your network environment:
Basic information
Access dataExample valueYour values
IP address of your gateway192.168.0.254
Netmask of your gateway255.255.255.0
Internet access
If you want to set up Internet access, you need an Internet Service Provider (ISP). You also
receive your personal access data from your ISP. The terms used for the required access
data may vary from provider to provider, but the type of information you need for dialling in
is basically the same.
The following table lists the access data that your device also needs for a DSL connection
to the Internet.

Note
To configure T-Online Internet access, in the Username field, enter the following succession of numbers without intervening spaces: User account (12 digits) + T-Online
number (usually 12 digits) + co-user number (for the main user, always 0001). If your
T-Online number is less than 12 digits long, a "#" character is required between the TOnline number and the co-user number. If you use T-DSL, you must add the character
string "@t-online.de" at the end of this string of numbers. You username could, for example, look like this: 00012345678906112345678#0001@t-online.de
Wireless LAN (only bintec R230aw and bintec R232bw)
You can operate your device as an access point and therefore connect individual work stations (e.g. laptops, PCs with wireless card or wireless adapter) by wireless connections to
your local network via WLAN (Wireless LAN) and let them communicate with each other.
The "Data for gateway configuration" table shows the details that are needed to do this.
As data can be transmitted over the air in the WLAN, this data can in theory be intercepted
and read by any attacker with the appropriate resources. Particular attention must therefore
be paid to protecting the wireless connection.
Note the following:
• Follow the security instructions when configuring your WLAN.
• Please also read Sicherheit im Funk-LAN [Security in Wireless LAN] published by the
Federal Office for Information Security, see http://www.bsi.bund.de .

Company network connection
To connect a remote network (e.g. head office), you need to know some data of the remote
terminal that will take your call. The remote terminal must also know your details. You have
to agree this data between you.
Your device and the device at your head office check before every connection to see if they
should take the call from the partner. To protect the network against unauthorised access,
the call is accepted only after correct authentication. This authentication is based on a common password and two codes that you and your partner use for the connection.

- The Ethernet LEDs ( 1 to 4 ) for the ports connected to the Ethernet then flash.
The device runs through the boot sequence.
- After the Status LED has flashed five times, release the Reset button.
Proceed as follows if you also want to reset all the user passwords to the ex works state
and delete stored configurations when resetting the device:
(1) Set up a serial connection to your device. Reboot your device and monitor the boot
sequence. Start the BOOTmonitor and choose (4) Delete Configuration and following the instructions.
or
(2) Set up a serial connection to your device. First carry out the reset procedure de-
scribed and enter erase bootconfig as Login at the login prompt in the command
line. Leave the password empty and press Return. The device runs through the boot
sequence again.
Note
If you delete the boot configuration using the Funkwerk Configuration Interface, all
passwords will also be reset and the current boot configuration deleted. The next time,
the device will boot with the standard ex works settings.
You can now configure your gateway again as described as of Configuring the Gateway on
page 20.

Chapter 4Access and Configuration
This chapter describes all the access and configuration options.
4.1Access Options
The various access options are presented below. Select the procedure to suit your needs.
There are various ways you can access your device to configure it:
• Via your LAN
• Via the serial interface
• Via an ISDN connection (R232a, R232bR232b and R232bw only)
4.1.1Access via LAN
4 Access and Configuration
Access via one of the Ethernet interfaces of your device allows you to to open the ExpressSetup Wizard and Funkwerk Configuration Interface in a web browser for configuration
purposes and to access your device via Telnet or SSH.
4.1.1.1 HTTP/HTTPS
With a current web browser, you can use the HTML interfaces to configure your device.
Configuration with the Express Setup Wizard is particularly easy. An extended configura-
tion can be set up using the Funkwerk Configuration Interface. For this, enter the follow-
ing in your web browser's address field:
• Express Setup Wizard:
http://192.168.0.254/wizard
or
https://192.168.0.254/wizard
• Funkwerk Configuration Interface:
http://192.168.0.254
or
https://192.168.0.254
bintec R200 Series51
4 Access and ConfigurationFunkwerk Enterprise Communications GmbH
4.1.1.2 Telnet
Apart from configuration using a web browser, with a Telnet connection you can also access the SNMP shell and use other configuration options. These are described in Configur-
ation options on page 58.
You do not need any additional software on your PC to set up a Telnet connection to your
device: Telnet is available on all operating systems.
Proceed as follows:
Windows
(1) Click Run… in the Windows Start menu.
(2) Enter telnet <IP address of your device>.
(3) Click OK.
A window with the login prompt appears. You are now in the SNMP shell of your
device.
(4) Continue with Logging in for Configuration on page 57.
Unix
You can also set up a Telnet connection on UNIX and Linux without any problem:
(1) Enter telnet <IP address of your device> in a terminal.
A window with the login prompt appears. You are now in the SNMP shell of your
device.
(2) Continue with Logging in for Configuration on page 57.
4.1.1.3 SSH
In addition to the unencrypted and potentially viewable Telnet session, you can also connect to your device via an SSH connection. This is encrypted, so all the remote maintenance options can be carried out securely.
The following preconditions must be met in order to connect to the device via SSH:
• The encryption keys needed for the process must be available on the device.
• An SSH client must be installed on your PC.
Encryption keys
First of all, make sure that the keys for encrypting the connection are available on your
device:
52bintec R200 Series
Funkwerk Enterprise Communications GmbH
(1) Log in to one of the types already available on your device (e.g. via Telnet - for login
see Logging in on page 56).
(2) Enter update -i for the input prompt. You are now in the Flash Management shell.
(3) Call up a list of all the files saved on the device: ls -al.
If you see a display like the one below, the keys needed are already there and you can
connect to the device via SSH:
The device generates a key pair for each of the algorithms (RSA and DSA), i.e. two
files must be stored in the flash for each algorithm (see example at above).
If no keys are available, you have to generate these first. Proceed as follows:
(1) Leave the Flash Management shell with exit.
(2) Call up the Setup tool (setup) and navigate to the Security -> SSH Daemon -> Cer-
tification Management menu.
(3) To have the keys generated by the device, mark one of the two entries with the cursor
and confirm with Enter. The device then generates the key and stores it in the
FlashROM.
(4) Make sure that both keys have been successfully generated. To do this, repeat the
procedure described above.
Login via SSH
Proceed as follows to log in on your device via SSH:
If you have made sure that all the keys needed are available on the device, you have to
check whether an SSH client is installed on your PC. Most UNIX and Linux distributions in-
bintec R200 Series53
4 Access and ConfigurationFunkwerk Enterprise Communications GmbH
stall a SSH client by default. Additional software, e.g. PuTTY, usually has to be installed on
a Windows PC.
Proceed as follows to log in on your device via SSH:
UNIX
(1) Enter ssh <IP address of the device> in a terminal.
The login prompt window appears. This is located in the SNMP shell of the device.
(2) Continue with Logging in on page 56.
Windows
(1) How an SSH connection is set up very much depends on the software used. Consult
the documentation for the program you are using.
As soon as you have connected to the device, the login prompt window will appear.
You are now in the SNMP shell of your gateway.
(2) Continue with Logging in on page 56.
Note
PuTTY requires certain settings for a connection to a bintec device. The support
pages of http://www.funkwerk-ec.com include FAQs, which list the required settings.
4.1.2Access via the Serial Interface
Each bintec gateway has a serial interface, with which a PC can be connected directly.
The following chapter describes what you have to remember when setting up a serial connection and what you can do to configure your device in this way.
Access via the serial interface is ideal if you are setting up an initial configuration of your
device and a LAN access is not possible via the pre-configured IP address
(192.168.0.254/255.255.255.0).
Windows
To connect your device to your PC via the serial interface, proceed as described in Quick
Install Guide on page 8. The Quick Install Guide is included with your device in printed
form and is also on the Companion CD.
If you are using a Windows PC, you need a terminal program for the serial connection, e.g.
HyperTerminal. Make sure that HyperTerminal was also installed on the PC with the Windows installation. However, you can also use any other terminal program that can be set to
the corresponding parameters (see below).
54bintec R200 Series
Funkwerk Enterprise Communications GmbH
If you have installed the BRICKware as described in the Quick Install Guide, two links are
provided in the Windows Start menu. If you use these, you do not have to make any other
settings for the serial connection to your device.
Proceed as follows to access your device via the serial interface:
(1) In the Windows-start menu, click on Programs -> BRICKware-> Device on COM1
(or Device on COM2 , if you use the COM2 port of your PC) to start HyperTerminal.
(2) Press Return (at least once) after the HyperTerminal window opens.
A window with the login prompt appears. You are now in the SNMP shell of your device.
You can now log in on your device and start the configuration.
Check
If the login prompt does not appear after you press Return several times, the connection to
your device has not been set up successfully.
Therefore, check the COM1 or COM2 settings on your PC.
(1) Click on File -> Properties.
(2) Click Configure in the Connect to tab.
The following settings are necessary:
- Bits per second: 9600
- Data bits: 8
- Parity: None
- Stopbits: 1
- Flow control: None
(3) Enter the values and click OK.
(4) Make the following settings in the Settings tab:
- Emulation: VT100
(5) Click OK.
4 Access and Configuration
The changes to the terminal program settings do not take effect until you disconnect the
connection to your device and then make the connection again.
If you use HyperTerminal, there may be problems with displaying umlauts and other special
characters. If necessary, therefore, set HyperTerminal to Autodetection instead of VT
100.
Unix
You will require a terminal program such as cu (on System V), tip (on BSD) or minicom
(on Linux). The settings for these programs correspond to those listed above.
bintec R200 Series55
4 Access and ConfigurationFunkwerk Enterprise Communications GmbH
Example of a command line for using cu: cu -s 9600 -c/dev/ttyS1
Example of a command line for using tip: tip -9600 /dev/ttyS1
4.1.3 Access over ISDN
All devices that have an ISDN interface can be accessed and configured from another
device via an ISDN call.
Access over ISDN with ISDN Login is especially recommended if your device is to be remotely configured or maintained. This is also possible even if your device is still in the ex
works state. Access is then obtained with the aid of a device that is already configured or a
PC with an ISDN card in the remote LAN. The device to be configured in your own LAN is
reached via a number of the ISDN connection (e.g. 1234). This enables the administrator in
the Remote LAN to configure your device remotely, for example.
Note
If you connect an unconfigured device to an ISDN connection in parallel to a PBX, the
PBX cannot take any calls until an ISDN number is configured on the device.
Access over ISDN costs money. If your device and your computer are in the LAN, it is
cheaper to access your device via the LAN or via the serial interface.
Your device in your LAN merely needs to be connected to the ISDN connection and
switched on.
To reach your device over ISDN Login, proceed as follows:
(1) Connect your device to the ISDN.
(2) Log in as administrator on your device in the remote LAN in the usual way.
(3) In the SNMP shell, type in isdnlogin <number of the ISDN connection of
your device>, e.g. isdnlogin 1234.
(4) The login prompt appears. You are now in the SNMP shell of your device.
Continue with Logging in for Configuration on page 57.
4.2Logging in
With certain access data, you can log in on your device and carry out different actions. The
extent of the actions available depend on the authorisations of the user concerned.
56bintec R200 Series
Funkwerk Enterprise Communications GmbH
A login prompt appears first, regardless of how you access your device. You cannot view
any information on the device or change the configuration without authentication.
4.2.1User names and passwords in ex works state
In its ex works state, your device is provided with the following user names and passwords:
User names and passwords in ex works state
User name PasswordAuthorisations
adminfunkwerk Read and change system variables, save configuration; use Ex-
writepublicRead and write system variables (except passwords) (changes
readpublicRead system variables (except passwords).
It is only possible to change and save configurations if you log in with the user name admin. Access information (user names and passwords) can also only be changed if you log
in with the user name admin. For security reasons, passwords are normally shown on the
Setup Tool screen not in plain text, but only as asterisks. The user names, on the other
hand, are displayed as plain text.

are lost when you switch off your device).
The security concept of your device enables you to read all the other configuration settings
with the user name read, but not the access information. It is therefore impossible to log in
with read, read the password of the admin user and subsequently log in with admin and
make changes to the configuration.
Caution
All bintec devices are delivered with the same username and password. As long as
the password remains unchanged, they are not protected against unauthorised use.
How to change the passwords is described in Changing the Password on page 77.
Make sure you change the passwords to prevent unauthorised access to your device
If you have forgotten your password, you must reset your device to the ex works state,
which means your configuration will be lost.
4.2.2Logging in for Configuration
Set up a connection to the device. The access options are described in Access Options on
page 51.
bintec R200 Series57
4 Access and ConfigurationFunkwerk Enterprise Communications GmbH

(1) Enter your user name in the User field of the input window.
(2) Enter your password in the Password field of the input window and confirm with Re-
turn or click the Login button.
The status page of the Funkwerk Configuration Interface opens in the browser.
SNMP shell
Log into the SNMP shell as follows:
(1) Enter your user name e.g. admin, and confirm with Return.
(2) Enter your user password e.g. funkwerk, and confirm with Return.
Your device logs in with the input prompt, e.g. r232bw:>. The login was successful. You
are now in the SNMP shell.
To leave the SNMP shell after completing the configuration, enter exit and press Return.
4.3Configuration options
This chapter first offers an overview of the various tools you can use for configuration of
your device.
You can configure your device in the following ways:
• Express Setup Wizard for beginners
• Funkwerk Configuration Interface for advanced users
• Setup Tool for experts
• SNMP shell commands
The configuration options available to you depend on the type of connection to your device:
Therefore, several types of configuration are available for each type of connection.
Note
To change the device configuration, you must log in with the user name admin. If you
do not know the password, you cannot make any configuration settings. This applies to
all types of configuration.
4.3.1Express Setup Wizard for beginners
You have already learnt about configuration with the Express Setup Wizard in the Quick
Install Guide. It is used to perform the basic configuration of your device quickly and can
also be used if you can address the device with its preset IP configuration from your LAN.
This usually covers most standard configurations.
However, if you would like to make further settings, you can use the other configuration
methods mentioned above. You can first configure your device with the Express SetupWizard and subsequently extend or change this initial configuration with one of the other
tools. In many cases, configuration using the Express Setup Wizard alone will be sufficient.
4 Access and Configuration
The Express Setup Wizard guides you through the configuration. Once you have exited
the Express Setup Wizard, your device is ready for use. The information you need for
configuration with the Express Setup Wizard and the prerequisites for this can be found in
the Quick Install Guide on page 8, which is also available to you in printed form.
The detailed help system of the Express Setup Wizard will help you to clarify any ques-
tions you may have. As a result, a detailed description of the Express Setup Wizard is not
provided here.
4.3.2 Funkwerk Configuration Interface for advanced users
The Funkwerk Configuration Interface is a web-based graphic user surface that you can
use from any PC with an up-to-date web browser via an HTTP or HTTPS connection.
You can use the Funkwerk Configuration Interface to carry out all configuration tasks
easily. It is integrated in your device and is available in English. If required, other languages
can be downloaded from the download area of www.funkwerk-ec.com and installed on
your device. To do this, proceed as described in Options on page 354.
The settings you make with the Funkwerk Configuration Interface are applied with theOK or Apply button of the menu, and you do not have to restart the device.
If you finish the configuration and want to save your settings so that they are loaded as the

4.3.3The Setup Tool for experts
The Setup Tool is a menu-controlled ASCII tool for the configuration and administration of
your device and, in addition to the SNMP commands, also allows access to all the configuration parameters.
To start the Setup Tool, you can be connected to the device in any way you like: It does not
matter whether you connect to the device via the LAN or via a serial connection.
Proceed as follows to start a Setup Tool session:
(1) Log in to your device as admin (see Logging in for Configuration on page 57).
(2) Enter setup after the input prompt and press Return.
The main menu of the ASCII Setup Tool opens.
bintec R200 Series73
4 Access and ConfigurationFunkwerk Enterprise Communications GmbH
Setup Tool menu
The main menu may differ from device to device, depending on the configuration level of
your device. Every Setup Tool menu contains three areas:
• The menu line contains a navigation aid to show you where you currently are in the
Setup Tools menu system. The system name of your device is also displayed. This is especially helpful if you are using several bintec devices with different system names.
• The configuration window is where the actual entries are made and the respective settings displayed. The field in which the cursor is currently located is shown with inverted
colours.
• The help line tells you how to move around in the current menu, which entries you can
change or which values are possible for an entry.
Basically, a menu looks like this:

4.3.3.3 Searching Lists
Some Setup Tool menus contain lists of several entries, e.g. the WAN Partner menu,
which lists all WAN partners:
Fig. 39: Setup Tool search
These lists are arranged in alphabetical order according to the contents of the first field. An
incremental search function is provided, which is very useful for searching for an item in
very long lists.
Proceed as follows:
(1) Enter the first letter of the entry you are looking for, with the cursor located on a list
entry. Entries can be made in upper or lower case.
(2) If necessary, enter more characters to refine the search.
(3) The Backspace or Delete key can be used to edit the search string.
The cursor automatically jumps to the first match it finds with the corresponding initial letters. The characters entered for the search are displayed in the help line at the bottom of
the menu.
Do not enter invisible characters, such as Tabulator or Space as they stop the search and
could cause a function to be executed.

Make sure the cursor is positioned in a list element. The search cannot run if the cursor is located in a command field, e.g. ADD or DELETE.

4.3.3.4 Changing the Password
The procedure described below for changing the password applies to all passwords on
your device: the access passwords for the user names admin, read and write, the HTTP
password, the PPP password and the provider password.
4 Access and Configuration
Any character may be used for entering a password. Passwords are only displayed as asterisks, even while changes are being made. The number of asterisks is the same as the
number of characters in the password.
Note
To start the Setup Tool of your device in a mode in which the passwords are displayed
in plain text and can be changed by one-time editing, you must enter the command
setup -p. This option only exists if you have logged in on your device with the user
name admin. In the password field, the Backspace key always deletes the complete
entry, not just one character.
Proceed as follows:
(1) Select the password field in the desired menu and enter the new password.
(2) The field changes to the change mode and the message Change Password appears
in the help line.
(3) Now press Return, Tabulator or a Cursor key to confirm. The field changes to the
confirm mode and Confirm Password is displayed in the help line.
(4) Now enter the new password again and confirm by pressing Return, Tabulator or a
Cursor key. If you have entered the repeat password correctly, the password is
changed. The new password is saved on leaving the menu with the SAVE button. If
bintec R200 Series77
4 Access and ConfigurationFunkwerk Enterprise Communications GmbH
you leave the menu by pressing CANCEL or Esc Esc, the password change is not
saved. If the two entries were not the same, the field is reset to the old password and
the help line shows the following message: "Password doesn't match. Try
again."
