RouteFinder MT ASR1-100 User Guide
Introduction
Welcome to Multi-Tech's new RouteFinder™, model number MT ASR1-100, an IP/IPX router for
interconnecting LANs using switched or dedicated wide area telecommunicaitons links. The MTASR1-
100 provides IP and IPX routing and Media Access Control (MAC) layer bridging for all other protocols
over its WAN port. It features a 10Base-T or AUI port for local LAN connection, Command Port for
configuration, and an RS-232/V .35 port for asynchronous or synchronous remote WAN connection
using standard point-to-point protocol (PPP). The configurable WAN port operates with a compatible
communication device operating up to 1 15K bps for async and T1 for sync speeds. These devices
include asynchronous and synchronous modems, ISDN terminal adapters and DDS, Switched 56,
Fractional T1 and T1 DSUs. System management is provided through the command port using
bundled Windows® software which provides easy-to-use configuration menus.

RouteFinder MT ASR1-100 User Guide
Front Panel
The front panel contains three groups of LEDs that provide the status of the LAN connection, WAN
Link activity , and general status of the RouteFinder. The Ethernet LEDs display the activity of the
LAN whether the RouteFinder is connected to the LAN, transmitting or receiving packets, and if a
collision is in progress. The WAN Link LEDs display the status of the link (i.e., ready to transmit or
receive serial data and if an external communications device with a V.35 interface is connected to the
RouteFinder). The last group of LEDs indicates whether the self test passed or failed and if the
power On/Off switch on the back of the RouteFinder is turned On.
ETHERNET
RCV Receive indicator blinks when packets are being received from the local area network.
XMT Transmit indicator blinks when packets are being transmitted to the local area network.
COL Collision indicator lights when a collision is in progress, that is, when two nodes are
transmitting packets at the same time.
LNK Link indicator lights indicating that the RouteFinder is connected to the local area network.
WAN Link
RCV Receive indicator blinks when the link is receiving data.
XMT Transmit indicator blinks when the link is transmitting data.
CTS Clear T o Send indicator lights when the link is ready to transmit data.
RTS Request to Send indicator lights then the link is ready to receive data.
CD Carrier Detect indicator lights when the RouteFinder detects a carrier signal.
V .35 The V35 indicator lights when the link is configured for a V.35 interface. That is, the shunt for
the link is in the V .35 position.

Back Panel
The cable connections for the RouteFinder are made at the back panel. Three groups of cables are
used on the RouteFinder, the Command Port, W AN link, and the Ethernet. The cable connections
are shown in Figure 1-3 and defined in the following groups.
Chapter 1 - Introduction and Description
RS232/V.35
RS-232/V.35 Connector
The RS-232/V.35 connector is used to connect the RouteFinder to a WAN device. The WAN device
connection is to an asynchronous or synchronous communications device such as a modem, DSU, or
ISDN terminal adapter. This connection can be either RS232C or V.35. If the connection is V.35, then
the shunt must be moved from the default RS232 position to the V .35 position. This connector is a
DB25 male connector.
10Base T Connector
The 10Base-T connector is used to connect the RouteFinder to a LAN using unshielded twisted cable.
This connector is an RJ-45 jack.
10Base 2 Connector
The 10Base 2 connector is used to connect the RouteFinder to a LAN using thin coax cable.
Command Port Connector
The Command Port connector is used to configure the RouteFinder using a PC with a serial port and
running Windows® software. The Command Port connector is an RJ-45 jack and a short adapter
cable is provided to convert to a standard serial port DB25 female connector.

Power Connector
The Power connector is used to connect the external power supply to the RouteFinder. The Power
connector is a 6-pin circular DIN connector. A separate power cord is connected to the power supply
and the live AC grounded outlet.
ON/OFF Switch
The power switch provides DC power to the RouterFinder when placed in the ON position and
removes power when placed in the OFF position.

RouteFinder MT ASR1-100 User Guide
Shunts
A shunt on the WAN port allows the same connector to be configured for an ITU-T V.35 electrical
interface signaling or EIA-232C/D signaling. The ITU-T V.35 signaling levels are generally more
reliable for high speed data and/or longer cable distances. The EIA-232C/D signaling is intended for
data rates of 19.2 Kbps or less and cable lengths of 50 feet or less. For higher speeds and/or longer
distances, the V .35 is generally preferred.
The shunt positions are toward the back of the printed circuit board (See Figure 1-4).

4. Build your user database by filling in the following fields for each user.
User Name.
The User Name can have as many as 39 characters. All printable characters are permitted with the
restriction that no blanks are allowed in the user name. In dial-in and dial-out applications, the user
name is treated as a case insensitive string.
User Password.
The User Password can have as many as 7 characters. In places where the password is used as a
character string, it is treated as a case insensitive string. Elsewhere (PPPs CHAP), it is treated as a
case sensitive pattern.
Call Back
You have to click this check box in order to access the following three Call Back functions.
Call Back Security Enabled
This parameter is of use in dial-in applications where the user is required to be called back at a
specific location. Enabling this parameter (Alt-S) results in having the administrator assigning the call
back parameters. Leave this function disabled if the user is to be allowed to choose the call back
number and the call back delay .
Call Back Number
The callback number is editable only if callback security is enabled (checked). This is the number
where the user will be called back. The user cannot choose the location where he wants to be called
back.
Call Back Delay
Call back delay is editable only if callback security is enabled. This specifies the duration (in seconds)
after which the user will be called back at the administrator-assigned number.
Protocols
This lets you select the protocol(s) the user is allowed to dial into the RouteFinder.
Dial In Port
WAN Port1 is available for dialing into the RouteFinder.
Dial Out Port
WAN Port1 is available for dialing out from the RouteFinder.
5. After each user is defined on the Add Users screen, click OK to display the updated Users List dialog
box. Click Add User to continue adding users to your database.
6. When you have added all users to the data base, click Download to load the database into the
RouteFinder.
