Chapter 1 Overview

Based on digital subscriber line (DSL) technology, PLANET new DSL product,
GRT-101 provides an affordable, flexible, efficient Internet access solution for
SOHO customers while reducing deployment and operational costs from
service providers. Via sending and receiving user’s datagram (often Internet
service) over existing telephone lines, GRT-101 concentrates all traffic onto a
single high-speed trunk for Internet activities or sharing a corporate intranet.
Through the simple-yet-powerful management UI of GRT-101, networks
administrators can complete a managed network deployment just in seconds.

wiring shall be located at the rear panel. The LAN port is a 10 Base-T
auto-sensing and half/full duplex configurable Ethernet interface and complied
with IEEE 802.3u respectively. The console (RS-232C) interface for
configuration are menu-driven operation and can also be configured through
Ethernet interface by Telnet or Web-based operation. The power switch
operated for power on and power off

2.4 Setting up the hardware environment

Step 1: Connect the power adapter to the port labeled DC-IN on the rear

panel of the product.

Step 2: Connect the Ethernet cable.

If GRT is directly connected to PC, the Ethernet cable has to be used
cross over one (refer to figure 2-3). If the product is connected to hub
or switch, be sure that the hub or switch supporting auto-sensing or
not. If yes, both cross over and none cross over Ethernet cable are
suitable. If not, only none cross over Ethernet cable could be used
(refer to figure 2-4).

Step 3: Connect the phone cable to the product. Connect the other side of

phone cable to wall jack.

Step 4: Connect male end of RS-232 cable to the product and female end to

any free COM port in PC.

Step 5: Connect the power adapter by plugging power supply.

Chapter 3 Configuration

3.1 Purpose

This chapter provides information about configuring GRT-101.

Note: After you have completed all necessary setting for GRT-101, make sure to write the new configuration to
NVRAM by “

write

” command and reboot the system, or all of your changes will not take effect.

3.2 Logon Procedure

There are three methods to logon to GRT-101: serial console, Telnet, and web
interface. For the first time configuration, perhaps only the serial console mode
could be used because applications requiring Internet protocol (IP)
communication, such as Telnet and web interface, are not available unless a
management IP is configured properly for your local networking environment.
After connecting all the necessary cables described in Chapter 2 Installation,
power on GRT-101 and select one of the following procedures to access
GRT-101.

Note: It is recommended that only one configuration application is used to setup GRT-101 at any given time, that is,
Telnet, serial console and the web management interfaces should not be used simultaneously.

3.2.1 Serial console

Check the connectivity of the RS-232 cable from your computer to the serial
port of GRT-101. Start your terminal access program with VT100 terminal
emulation. Configure the serial link with baudrate of 9600, 8 data bits, no parity
check, 1 stop bit, and no flow-control, and press the SPACE key until the login
screen appears. When you see the login screen, you can logon to GRT-101.

User: admin
Password: *****

Note: If you have not set any user profile for GRT-101, enter the factory default user “

admin

”. When the system

prompts you for a password, type “

admin

” to enter GRT-101.

After you logon to GRT-101 and before proceeding any further, check the
software version of GRT-101 by the command:

PLANET Technology GRT-101 User’s Manual

admin> show system

If GRT-101 is out of date, get the latest version from your service provider. See
the TFTP command in the section 3.14 Software Upgrade for more information
on how to update GRT-101 firmware.

3.2.2 Telnet

Make sure the correct Ethernet cable is used for connecting the LAN port of
your computer to GRT-101. The LAN LNK indicator on the front panel shall
light if a correct cable is used. Starting your Telnet client with VT100 terminal
emulation and connecting to the management IP of GRT-101, wait for the login
screen appears. When you see the login screen, you can logon to GRT-101.

User: admin
Password: *****

Note: The factory default management IP and subnet mask are of 192.168.0.1 and 255.255.255.0, respectively. To
change these setting, see section 3.6.1 Bridge management and 3.7.1 LAN setting for routing mode operation. If you
have not set any user profile for GRT-101, enter the factory default user “

admin

”. When the system prompts you for a

password, type “

admin

” to enter GRT-101. For more security issues for remote management interfaces such as Telnet

and web interface, see section 3.11 Management Security.

3.2.3 Web browser

Make sure the correct Ethernet cable is used for connecting the LAN port of
your computer to GRT-101. The LAN LNK indicator on the front panel shall
light if a correct cable is used. Starting your web browser and connecting to the
management IP of GRT-101, wait for the login screen appears. When you see
the login screen, you can logon to GRT-101.

Note: The factory default management IP and subnet mask are 192.168.0.1 and 255.255.255.0 respectively. To
change these setting, see section 3.6.1 Bridge management and 3.7.1 LAN setting. If you have not change password
setting for web interface, enter the factory default user “

root

”. When GRT prompts you for a password, type “

root

”.

More security issues for remote management interfaces, please refer to section 3.11 Management Security.
