Introduction
Congratulations on your purchase of a TRENDnet TW-H6W1IR
ISDN router with integrated Ethernet hub and ISDN T/A. No larger
than an ordinary modem, your router offers inexpensive yet complete
telecommunications and internetworking solutions for your home or
branch office. It is ideal for everything from Internet browsing to
receiving calls from Remote Dial-in Users and making connections to
other LANs via Remote Nodes.
Distinguishing features of the TW-H6W1IR include support for a full
range of networking protocols including TCP/IP (Transmission Control
Protocol/Internet Protocol, also known as IP) and Transparent
Bridging.
This complete solution also includes remote dial-in user support, an
Internet single-user account (Network Address Translation) option,
extensive network management capabilities, and solid security features.
Introduction 1
TW -H6W1IR ISDN Remote Router
Product Features
The TW-H6W1IR router is packed with features that give it the
flexibility to provide a complete networking solution for almost any
small to medium-sized office environment.
Ease of Installation
Your TW-H6W1IR is a self-contained unit that is quick and easy to
install. Physically, it resembles an external modem; however, it is a
combination ISDN router and 10 Mbps Ethernet hub, and it uses
twisted-pair Ethernet cables to connect to the host network.
Built-in Hub
As a 10 Mbps Ethernet hub, your TW-H6W1IR provides six ports for
connecting standard Ethernet devices. Five ports are designed for
connecting network end nodes—single-user computers, servers,
bridges, other routers, etc.—through standard “straight-through”
twisted-pair cables; the sixth is wired for making an “uplink” connection
to another hub or switch through the same type of straight-through
cabl e used to connect end nodes.
ISDN Basic Rate Interface (BRI)
Using a standard S/T the TW-H6W1IR supports DSS1 ISDN
switches. The two ISDN B-channels can be used independently for
two destinations, or they can be bundled together for one highbandwidth connection supporting bandwidth-on-demand.
2 Introduction
TW -H6W1IR ISDN Remote Router
ISDN Leased Line
If the router is set up for an ISDN leased line, it can automatically
initialize the leased-line connection each time it is powered up.
Standard Phone Jacks
The router is equipped with two standard phone jacks for connecting
telephones, fax machines, or modems. This allows the ISDN line to be
used for voice as well as data calls.
Dial On Demand
The Dial On Demand feature allows a TW-H6W1IR to automatically
place a call to a Remote Node whenever there is traffic coming from
any workstation on the LAN (Local Area Network) to that remote site.
Bandwidth On Demand
Your TW-H6W1IR supports bandwidth up to 128 kps over a single
ISDN BRI line. It incorporates MLPPP (Multi-Link PPP) to bundle
two B channels over a BRI line. In addition, the router dynamically
allocates bandwidth between the two B channels, increasing or
decreasing bandwidth as needed to allow for greater efficiency in data
transfer. It supports BAP (Bandwidth Allocation Protocol) and BACP
(Bandwidth Allocation Control Protocol) to manage the number of links
in the multi-link bundle.
Full Network Management
The TW-H6W1IR incorporates SNMP (Simple Network
Management Protocol) support and menu-driven network management
via an RS-232 or Telnet connection.
Introduction 3
TW -H6W1IR ISDN Remote Router
RADIUS (Remote Authentication Dial In User Service)
The RADIUS feature allows you to use a central external Unix or NTbased server to support thousands of users.
PPP Security
The TW-H6W1IR supports PAP (Password Authentication Protocol)
and CHAP (Challenge Handshake Authentication Protocol).
RIP-1/RIP-2
Your TW-H6W1IR supports both RIP-1 and RIP-2 (Routing
Information Protocol versions 1 and 2) exchanges with other routers.
DHCP Support (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol)
DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) allows IP addresses to
be automatically and dynamically assigned to hosts on your network.
Data Compression
The TW-H6W1IR incorporates Stac data compression and CCP
(Compression Control Protocol).
Networking Compatibility
The TW-H6W1IR is compatible with remote access products from
other companies such as Ascend, Cisco, and 3Com. Furthermore, they
support Microsoft Windows 95 and Windows NT remote access
capability.
4 Introduction
TW -H6W1IR ISDN Remote Router
Applications for your TW-H6W1IR
Some applications for the TW-H6W1IR include:
Internet Access
Your TW-H6W1IR supports TCP/IP protocol, which is the language
used for the Internet. It is also compatible with access servers
manufactured by major vendors such as Cisco and Ascend.
Network Address Translation (NAT)
For small office environments, the TW-H6W1IR allows multiple users
on the LAN to access the Internet concurrently through a single Internet
account. This provides Internet access to everyone in the office for the
price of a single user.
NAT address mapping can also be used to link two IP domains via a
LAN-to-LAN connection.
LAN-to-LAN Enterprise Connections
The TW-H6W1IR can dial to or answer calls from another remote
access router connected to a different LAN. The TW-H6W1IR
supports TCP/IP and has the capability to bridge any Ethernet
protocol.
Telecommuting Server
The TW-H6W1IR allows Remote Dial-in Users to dial in and gain
access to your LAN. This feature enables users that have workstations
Introduction 5

Installation and Initial Configuration
This section discusses the different connections that can be made to the
router when setting it up.
Initially, you will only wish to connect the console to the router in order
to configure the other ports. Once that is complete, you will need to
turn off the power to the router and plug in the connection cables to the
other devices. Next, power on the other devices. When they have
finished powering up, power on the router. Each of these steps is
described in detail in the sections below. Please skip any setting
adjustments that do not apply to your configuration needs.
14 Installation
TW -H6W1IR ISDN Remote Router
For the initial configuration of your TW-H6W1IR, you must use an
RS-232 console connection, either to a computer running serial
communications software or to a serial data terminal.
After the router has been successfully installed and the initial
configuration is complete, you can continue to modify settings through
the console, or you can change configuration settings through a remote
Telnet connection or through a web browser. See the chapters entitled
Configuration and Management and Using Telnet for detailed
instructions on using Telnet to configure your TW-H6W1IR.
A Warning on Connection Cables
ISDN and Ethernet cables are very similar to each other. It is important
that you use the correct cable for each connection; otherwise, your
router could be damaged.
Before connecting or disconnecting an RS-232 cable between two
devices, turn both devices off to avoid any chance of damaging them.
Step 1 - Setting up the Console
The initial setup of the TW-H6W1IR, requires connecting a console
to the 9-pin RS-232 Diagnostic port on the router’s rear panel. A
serial cable is supplied with the router in order to make this
connection. A console can be a terminal, such as a VT-100, or a
normal PC running terminal emulation software (such as Microsoft
HyperTerminal, included with Windows). The terminal emulation
software needs to be configured to the following parameters:
?? VT100 terminal emulation
Installation 15
TW -H6W1IR ISDN Remote Router
?? 9600 baud
?? No parity, 8 data bits, 1 start bit, 1 stop bit
?? No flow control
Step 2 - Connecting the Console to the Router
A serial cable is included in the TW-H6W1IR package. To connect
this cable, plug its nine-pin connector into the 9-pin RS-232 Diagnostic
port on the router’s rear panel, then connect the other end to the serial
port on the rear of your computer or data terminal.
Please make sure both machines are turned off before making this
connection.
After the connection is made, first power on the console. If you are
using a PC, run the terminal emulation software at this time. After the
PC and the terminal emulation software are up and running, power on
the router.
Using the Console
The Console Program is the interface that you will be using to
configure your TW-H6W1IR. Several operations that you should be
familiar with before you attempt to modify the configuration of your
router are listed below:
? ?Moving the Cursor. Within a menu, use Tab and arrow keys
to navigate through different information fields.
? ?Moving Forward to Another Menu. To move forward to a
sub-menu below the current one, use Tab or arrow keys to
16 Installation
TW -H6W1IR ISDN Remote Router
position the cursor on the sub-menu item and press Enter to
view the selected sub-menu.
? ?Entering Information. There are two types of fields that you
will need to fill in. The first requires you to type in the appropriate
information. The second gives you choices to choose from. In the
second case, press the space bar to cycle through the available
choices. Upon configuring all fields the sub-menu, position the
cursor on SAVE and press Enter to save, or position the cursor
on EXIT to cancel.
? ?Refresh Screen. Console screens are notorious for becoming
garbled. When this happens, simply press <Ctrl> + <R> to
refresh the contents of the screen.
Step 3 - Connecting an ISDN Line to the Router
Your phone company will provide an S/T interface into your home or
office. Plug the ISDN line from the router directly into the ISDN wall
socket provided by your phone company.
Step 4 - Connecting a Telephone or Fax Machine to the Router
You can connect a regular telephone, fax machine, or modem to your
router to be used for analog calls. Note that the router’s other functions
all work the same whether you connect an analog device or not.
To connect an analog device, just plug one end of the device’s cord
into one of the sockets on the back of the router marked PHONE 1 or
PHONE 2.
Installation 17
TW -H6W1IR ISDN Remote Router
To have incoming calls directed to a device on a PHONE jack, you
must enter the telephone number for the phone in the console program
under the Interface Configuration, ISDN submenu.
Step 5 - Connecting Ethernet Cables to the Router
Your TW-H6W1IR has six ports for connecting 10BASE-T Ethernet
devices to form a LAN. The jacks for ports 1 through 5 are wired to let
you connect network end nodes (computers, servers, bridges, other
routers, etc.) using standard “straight-through” EIA (Electronic
Industries Association) Category 3 or higher twisted-pair cables. The
jack for the sixth port is labeled Uplink and is wired to let you connect
to another 10Mbps Ethernet or dual-speed hub using a straight-through
cable, or an end node using a cross-wired cable.
Please refer to the following chart when deciding on the type of cable
necessary for a given connection:

The figure below shows how to make an Ethernet connection between
the router and a network end node.
Important Notes on Ethernet Connections
Observe the following rules when connecting devices with twisted-pair
Ethernet cables:
? ?For both end-node and uplink connections, use only EIA
Category 3 or higher-grade twisted-pair data cables with RJ-45
plugs. In almost all cases, only standard straight-through cables
are needed.
? ?Make sure no cable is more than 100 meters (328 feet) long.
? ?When uplinking two hubs together with a straight-through cable,
use an uplink-type jack at one end, and an end-node-type jack
at the other.
Installation 19
TW -H6W1IR ISDN Remote Router
? ?If uplinking more than two hubs together, observe the 5-4-3 rule:
no signal, in order to go from one end node to another, must ever
pass through more than five twisted-pair cables, four repeaters
(that is, hubs), and three uplink cables. This is the maximum signal
path in twisted-pair Ethernet. Also be sure never to allow a signal
loop to form.
Note that you can connect an end node through the Uplink jack,
but to do so you must use a cross-wired cable or cable
converter.
Step 6 - Powering Up Devices for Initial Configuration
Plug in the included 18V DC, 750 mA power adapter into the power
jack on the router’s rear panel.
20 Installation
TW -H6W1IR ISDN Remote Router
You should have now connected the RS-232 cable to the console, the
ISDN phone line, one or more Ethernet cables, and the power adapter.
At this point in the installation process you can now power up the
console computer, run the terminal emulation software (if necessary),
and then power up the TW-H6W1IR.
Step 7 - Initial Configuration of the Router
After the console is properly connected and both devices are powered
on as described in the preceding sections, you should see the router run
through the power on self test (POST). Finally, it will arrive at the logon
screen shown below. If the login screen does not appear, press <Ctrl>
+ <R> to refresh the screen.
Installation 21
TW -H6W1IR ISDN Remote Router
To log on to the router, use the factory set username and password
‘Admin’ (without the quotes). Please note that the user name and
password are case-sensitive.
Upon entering the username and password (using the <tab> key to
jump to the next field), position the cursor on OK and press <Enter>.
You will then see the following Main Menu:
Step 7 - Configuring the LAN Port
Preparing the router for connection to a LAN only requires enabling the
LAN port, enabling IP networking, assigning the LAN port an IP
address and enabling telnet (if necessary). After the LAN port is
configured, all other features on the router can be configured remotely
through the LAN by using the included Windows-based Router
Configuration Utility or Telnet. Regardless, the router can always be
configured using a console connected to the RS-232 Console port.
To configure the LAN:
