If requested, provide this information to your telephone company.

This equipment is designed to be connected to the telephone network or premises wiring using a compatible modular jack which is Part 68 compliant.

The REN is useful to determine the quantity of devices you may connect to your telephone line and still have those devices ring when your number is called. In most, but not all areas, the sum of the RENs of all devices should not exceed five (5.0). To be certain of the number of devices you may connect to your line, as determined by the REN, you should call your local telephone company to determine the maximum REN for your calling area.

If the terminal equipment causes harm to the telephone network, the telephone company, may discontinue your service temporarily. If possible, they will notify you in advance. But if advance notice is not practical, you will be notified as soon as possible. You will be advised of your right to file a complaint with the FCC.

Your telephone company may make changes in its facilities, equipment, operation, or procedures that could affect the proper operation of your equipment. If they do, you will be given advance notice so as to give you an opportunity to maintain uninterrupted service.

No repairs can be performed by the customer.

Caution

You can also use an RJ-11 cable with a regular

analog telephone to connect the 3000 Series to the

ISDN wall jack.

Networks discourages using an RJ-11 cable for

this purpose, however, because you may

inadvertently plug the 3000 Series into a normal

telephone jack rather than into an ISDN wall jack.

This can damage the 3000 Series.

ISDN S/T Module

Notes:

• You can install this module only in slot 3 (D3).

• You must connect to the ISDN network via a line isolation unit (NT1

device).

The S/T module does not have a built-in NT1 device. You must provide an external NT1 device. A typical NT1 device looks like a small modem and has S/T port(s) and a U interface on the back of it.

The ISDN S/T module can co-exist with other ISDN equipment using the same ISDN line.

To connect your ISDN S/T module,

1. Connect one end of the RJ-45 ISDN cable (not supplied with your router) to the RJ-45 ISDN connector on the ISDN S/T module.

2. Connect the other end of the ISDN cable to the S/T port on the NT1 device.

3. Set the S/T terminator switch on the ISDN module to the appropriate position. See Setting the S/T Switch on page 17.

Setting the S/T Switch

There is an S/T switch on the ISDN S/T module. You can slide the switch to 0 or 1. Setting the switch to 0 means that no terminating resistor is in use. Setting the switch to 1 means that the ISDN S/T module terminates the ISDN cable with a 100-ohm resistor.

IP Addressing

You need the following IP addressing information for all 3000 Series gateway routers.

What is the IP address for your 3000 Series Ethernet interface?

This address must be unique on the Ethernet.

What is the IP subnet mask for your 3000 Series Ethernet interface?

What are the IP addresses and subnet masks of the WAN interfaces?

In place of an assigned IP address, you can use unnumbered IP or dynamic IP addressing.

In the command line interface, to set up

• unnumbered IP, set the IP address of

the WAN to 0.0.0.n, where n is the number of the WAN interface, and set the subnet mask to 0.0.0.0.

• dynamic IP addressing, set the IP

address of the WAN to 0.0.0.n where n is the number of the WAN interface, and set the subnet mask of the WAN to 255.255.255.0.
