A description of the wiring for the FlowPoint routers

• Router to Wall
  • Use the cable that Covad provided to connect the port marked DSL on the router to the wall. This cable looks like a phone cable and has an RJ-11 plug on the wall end, and a larger RJ-45 plug on the end that connects to the router.
• Router to Computer
  • Up to four computers can be directly connected to the router's ethernet ports using regular ethernet cables (as opposed to crossover cables). If more than four computers need to be connected then a hub will be needed.
  • The LED on the computer's NIC card should be lit.
• Console Port
  • The unlabled port on the router is the console port. This port can only be used for configuring or troubleshooting the router using the command line interface. You need to connect to the router using a regular ethernet cable and an RJ-45 to DB-9 adapter.
  • HyperTerminal can be used to connect to the router: Name the new connection FlowPoint. Set the terminal program for correct serial port (Select direct to ComX (X is the Com port number) on the screen that asks you for the phone number, etc.) and configure for 9600 baud, N, 8, 1, NO flow control.

1. Login to the system.
   If the user wants to change the password use this command:

2. System commands - these affect the behavior of the box as a whole.

   system wan2wanforwarding off
system name FlowPoint2200

3. Ethernet commands - these affect the LAN interface of the box.

   eth ip enable

4. Remote commands - these affect the WAN interface of the box.

   remote disable internet
remote add dslip
remote enable dslip
remote setpvc 0*38 dslip
remote disbridge dslip
remote addiproute 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 1 dslip

   remote setprotocol ppp dslip
remote setauthen chap dslip
remote disAuthen dslip

   remote setOurSysName CovadLogin dslip
remote setOurPasswd CovadPassword dslip

5. Ethernet commands - these affect the LAN interface of the box.

   eth ip addr FirstUsableIP 255.255.255.n

6. Disable NAT.

   remote setIPTranslate off dslip

7. DHCP commands - these are commands that affect the behavior of the DHCP server

   dhcp disable all

8. Save the configuration.

   sys msg 05/21/2003
