Navigating the IAD Menu Interface
Menus in the IAD configuration system are arranged hierarchicall y . That is,
you select single-key options to navigate down to display sp ec ialized
menus and specific tasks, and press the Escape key successively to
return bac k to menus higher in the interfac e.
The specific menus, submenus and commands that display depend on the
interfaces for the specific IAD, the options configured and the security level
that you use to log in.
To select a m enu item, just t y pe the opt ion dis pl ayed to t he left of the it em.
Although c haracter options are di sp lay ed in upper c as e, the IAD accepts
both upper and lower case options. It is not necessary to press Enter after
typi ng the select ion to exec ute it—the I AD im m ediately responds w ith a
request for input or another menu for more options.
For a hierarc hical map of th e M ain menu, its menus and commands , se e
Appendix A, Me nu Map on page 275.
Entering Settings and Values
When th e I AD requests input for a s etting or configur ation valu e, type it at
the promp t . P res s t he Enter key to terminate th e input and proc eed to the
next step.
The IA D resp on ds with err or m ess ag es i f a val ue is in co rre ct , or it dis pl a ys
the curren t me nu so you can c ont inue with related tasks.
Using Default or Current Values
The IAD dis plays a defa ult or current value in parent heses immediately to
the right of each message, just to the left of the comm and prom pt . To
accept this value, just press the Enter key.
For example, when the following message displays:
Enter a new sub ne t ma sk for th is int er fac e:
(255.255.255.0) -)
You may press Enter to c aus e the IAD to s et 255.255.255.0 as the
subnet mask value . U s ing the Enter key t o s k ip t hrough def ault or current
values often speeds the process of proceeding through a family of input
steps, to quic k ly get t o t he input step wh ere you want to ch ange a value.

sure to do so before exiting.
Basic IAD
Configuration
Connecting LAN, WAN, USI and Telephones
Each IAD has a default c onfiguration w hen it is shippe d f rom the fact ory.
At a minimum, you should view th e c onfiguration and check the following
settings for probable update for each customer installation:
1. Configure the LAN IP addr es s , if no t already com pleted (page 13)
2. Configure ea c h of t he WAN options and th e DSLAM prof ile (WAN
Configuration on page 51)
3. Create and configure at least one DLCI (page 93) or PVC (page 81) for
data traffic and s et th e WAN I P address (WAN Configuration on page
51.)
4. Configure static or default route or enable bridging for all data traffic
5. Create and configure a DCLI (page 93) or PVC (page 81) for voice
where required and select appropriate voice gateway se ttings.
6. Reset the IAD (page 15) to enable all configuration changes.
In this sect ion, you’ll connect the IAD to th e c om puter and te lephone
systems the IAD is intended to support.
Before proceeding, make sure that you have an appropriate serial cable
for your PC, identify the LAN switching equipment where you’ll connect the
IAD, identify the telephone cables, and verify that WAN service is installed,
and configured by t he service provider.
When you’ve completed this section, reset the IAD so it can synchronize
these physical connections.
Ethernet LAN Connection
The Ethernet LAN port on the rear of the IAD is an RJ45 jack for 10/
100Base-T Ethernet cables. If the IAD is intended to act as an Internet
gateway for the LAN in the customer’s premises, connect the IAD to the
switch, hub or router us ing an Ethern et s tr aight-through cable.
NOTE
To temporarily connect the IAD directly to a PC for Telnet
configuration (without going through a hub or router), be sure
to use an Ethernet cros s -ov er cable (cust omer-supplied).
W AN Con nections
WAN connections vary, based on the WAN int erf ace on your IAD . I dentify
the WAN interfac e on your IAD , and proceed to th e appropriat e s ection.

Upgrading the System
Periodically, Verilink may provide n ew s oftw are that you w ill download to
the IAD to upgrade the system. You must use TFTP to perform the file
transfer when upgrading the entire system.
NOTE
To use TFTP, you must configure both the IAD and the computer that
contains the TFTP Server program, a program that you license separately.
Some gate w ay s directly support file trans f er as a means of
upgradin g I AD s . Fo r information, ref er to the Voice Gatew ay
manufact urer’s op erating manual.
Using TFTP Servers via LAN or WAN
Before the IAD can access a LAN or Intranet-based TFTP server, you
must con fig ure the IP address of the Ethernet po rt (page 13) on the same
subnet as your TFTP server, and the IAD must be connected to the LAN.
To access a WAN- bas ed server, you must co nf igure the T1/E1 or xDSL
Interface with a management DLCI or PVC and a WAN IP address. For
information about setting the IP a ddress of the WAN port, see Cha pt er 6,
WAN Configuration on page 51.
Copying the Source Files
Typically, you will receive two ZIP files (a core ZIP file an d an applicatio n
ZIP file) for each upgrade.
First, extract each file into a single directory on your PC. Then, set the
directory as the path that the TFTP Server will use to send files to the IAD
(often identif ied as upload/ downloa d or outboun d directory).
Upgrading via TFTP
If your TFTP Server is not running, start it now and note the IP address of
the computer it is running on. To upgrade the IAD software:
1. On the Main menu, type 9 to display the Utilit ies m enu:

assigned a v alid IP addre ss and subnet ma s k , a nd y ou’re on
the same subnet as t he TFTP Server. Use the Ping command
to success f ully ping the IAD and try again.
Upon completion, the IAD reports the success or failure of these files
specifica lly, and then re ports the complet ion of file tra ns f er and resets.
NOTE

Identifying your WAN Interface and Datalink Protocol
The secti ons y ou’ll use to perform WAN con fig uration depend on the IAD
model and the datalink protocol you choose.
Voice and data traffic are each carried in their own PVCs (ATM protocol) or
DLCIs (Frame Relay protocol). You may define up to 8 PVCs or DLCIs for
voic e and data.
For a voice circuit, a single PVC or DLCI can carry the voice traffic for all
voice por ts on t he I AD. Voicepath configuration is de scribed in a se parate
chapter—Voice Path Conf iguration on page 139.
To proceed, identify your IAD and datalink protocol in t he tables follo w ing,
