•

Ensure that the power cable used with this device meets all applicable standards for the country in which it is to be installed, and that it is connected to a wall outlet which has earth ground.

•

Hazardous network voltages are present in WAN ports regardless of whether power to the SmartNode is ON or OFF. To avoid electric shock, use caution when near WAN ports. when detaching the cables, detach the end away from the SmartNode ﬁrst.

•

Do not work on the system or connect or disconnect cables during periods of lightning activity.

5.0 Loading the conﬁguration (optional)

Patton provides a collection of conﬁguration templates on the CD-ROM shipped with your SmartNode device— and also on the support page at application that you can use it to speed up conﬁguring the SmartNode. Simply download the conﬁguration note that matches your application to your PC. Adapt the conﬁguration as described in the conﬁguration note to your network (remember to modify the IP address) and copy the modiﬁed conﬁguration to a TFTP server. The SmartNode can now load its conﬁguration from this server.

Note

Patton regularly adds new conﬁguration templates to the collection at if you do not see your application on the CD-ROM, it may have been added to the website.

Note

If your application is unique and not covered by any of Patton’s conﬁguration templates, you can manually conﬁgure the SmartNode instead of loading a conﬁguration ﬁle template. In that case, refer to the

After you reboot the SmartNode the new startup conﬁguration will become active.

When you issue the reload command, the SmartNode will ask if you want to copy the running conﬁguration to the startup conﬁguration. Since you just downloaded a conﬁguration ﬁle to the startup conﬁguration you must answer this question with NO.

IMPORTANT

Otherwise, the downloaded conﬁguration will be overwritten and lost!

The SmartNode router have been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A computing device in accordance with speciﬁcations in Subpart B of Part 15 of FCC rules, which are designed to provide reasonable protection from such interference in a commercial installation. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If the SmartNode router does cause interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by disconnecting the unit, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures: moving the computing equipment away from the
