Prepare for installation by gathering the following equipment and following all safety recommendations.
Follow these instructions to connect a console.
-
Attach the RJ-45 connector to the Office Router console port, and attach the
DB-25 connector to the console port of a PC or terminal (OR-M shown).
-
Ensure that DIP switch 1 is up (OR-M shown).
-
When the Office Router is turned on with DIP switch 1 up, the S0 port is set to
9600bps, 8 data bits, no parity, and 1 stop bit, and software flow control
(XON/XOFF).
The following Ethernet cables can be connected to the Office Router. (See "Ethernet Specifications" on page D-8 for more information.)
Follow these instructions to connect an Ethernet cable to the Ethernet 10BaseT port.
-
This cable is available from most computer equipment suppliers.
-
Connect the cable to the Ethernet 10BaseT port (OR-U shown).
-
Set DIP switch 3 up (OR-U shown).
Follow these instructions to connect an Ethernet cable to the Ethernet 10Base5
(AUI) port.
-
This cable is available from most computer equipment suppliers.
-
Connect the cable to the Ethernet AUI port (OR-U shown).
-
Ensure that DIP switch 3 is down (OR-M shown).
Follow these instructions to connect a T1/E1 line to the W1 port of the OR-HS or a fractional T1/E1 line to the W1 port of the OR-LS. You must have already ordered a dedicated circuit or leased line with speeds from 56Kbps up to T1/E1 from the telephone company.
Call your local telephone service provider to order T1 or E1 or fractional T1/E1 service. Typically you must pay an installation charge, a monthly flat-rate service charge, and usage charges.
Note ¯
The W1 port requires an external clock signal provided by the telephone company and a channel service unit/digital service unit (CSU/DSU). Lucent recommends clock sourcing provided by the telephone company.
-
These cables are available from most computer equipment suppliers.
Connect a T1/E1 or fractional T1/E1 line to the W1 port (OR-HS shown).
Follow these instructions to connect an ISDN BRI line to the OR-ST or OR-U if you have already ordered the service from the telephone company.
Connect an ISDN BRI line to ISDN S/T or ISDN U port (OR-U shown).
-
If you are using an NT1 device with the S/T interface, connect the ISDN BRI line to
the NT1, and connect the NT1 to the ISDN S/T interface using the cable supplied
by Lucent.
Follow these instructions to connect a PCMCIA modem to the PCMCIA slot on the
OR-M.
-
This cable is usually supplied with the modem card.
Note ¯
Ensure that the PCMCIA modem is facing right side up when it is inserted. Refer to the modem manufacturer's documentation for this information.
-
Insert the Type 2 PCMCIA modem into the PCMCIA modem slot.
The PCMCIA modem will click into the PCMCIA slot when it is fully seated.
-
Connect the modem cable to the PCMCIA modem and to an analog wall jack.
Follow these instructions to connect an analog telephone, fax, or external modem to the analog PHONE port on the OR-ST-AP or OR-U-AP.
Caution ¯
Do not connect an analog telephone line directly to the PHONE port of the Office Router.
-
Connect the analog device to the PHONE port on the Office Router
(OR-U-AP shown).
If you are using an external modem, connect the RJ-45-to-DB-25-Male modem cable
to the S0 port of the Office Router.
-
Pick up the telephone receiver and ensure that a dial tone is present.
-
If no dial tone is present, verify connections. If you still do not hear a dial tone, call
Lucent Remote Access Technical Support.
Outgoing calls. If both ISDN B channels are being used for a Multilink PPP data connection, the Office Router OR-ST-AP and OR-U-AP temporarily drops one of the B channels connections to allow an outbound voice call.
Incoming calls. If your ISDN service is provisioned to support more than two call appearances, the Office Router temporarily drops one B channel of a Multilink PPP session to allow an inbound voice call. If your ISDN service does not support more than two call appearances, the inbound caller will hear a busy signal.
This feature is supported only on the National ISDN-1 switch type.
Data over voice (DOV) calls. To receive DOV calls, the analog PHONE port of the OR-ST-AP and OR-U-AP must be disabled.
The Office Router does not support call waiting, call hold, or caller line ID (CLID) features.
The following commands are available in ComOS for the OR-ST-AP and OR-U-AP.
Note ¯
ComOS commands for the analog port use the pots keyword.
set pots-displays the setting (enabled/disabled) of the analog PHONE port.
set pots on-enables the analog PHONE port.
set pots off-disables the analog PHONE port.
show pots-displays the status of the analog PHONE port and the B channel associated with it.
set u-law-enables North American (T1 areas) digital signal attenuation.
set a-law-enables International (E1 areas) digital signal attenuation.
Follow these instructions to start the Office Router.
-
Attach the power cord to the Office Router and to a properly grounded electrical outlet
(OR-M shown).
-
Turn the power switch on (OR-M shown).
-
Verify that the System LED is active (OR-M shown).
While the router is booting, the LED blinks four times in rapid succession and then
twice in 1 second. During normal operation, the LED blinks once every 5 seconds.
If the System LED does not behave in this way, see "Observing LED Behavior" on
page A-1.
-
Verify that the Link LED is active.
The Link LED blinks on once for 10Base5 (AUI) and twice for 10BaseT. Solid on
indicates that 10BaseT link integrity exists. Solid off indicates a link error for
10BaseT. The Link LED is not used for AUI. If the Link LED does not behave in this
way, see "Observing LED Behavior" on page A-1.
-
Verify that the Network LED is active when Ethernet traffic is present.
The Network LED blinks once for every packet transmitted or received. In heavy
traffic situations, the LED might appear to be solidly lit. If the Network LED does
not behave in this way, see "Observing LED Behavior" on page A-1.
-
Verify that the NT1 LED is active (OR-U only).
The NT1 LED blinks eight times per second for approximately 8 seconds after
startup. If no service profile identifier (SPID) is set on the port and no circuit to the
telephone company exists, the NT1 LED turns off after the initial 8 seconds. If a
circuit to the telephone company exists and no SPID is set on the port, the NT1
LED blinks once per second.
If a SPID is set on the port and a circuit to the telephone company exists, the NT1
LED blinks once per second while synchronizing with the telephone company and
then stays solidly lit. If the NT1 LED does not behave this way, contact Lucent
Remote Access Technical Support.
-
Verify that the S1 LED is active (OR-U and OR-ST-OR-ST shown).
The S1 LED stays solidly lit when ISDN port S1 has established a connection. If the
S1 LED does not behave this way, contact Lucent Remote Access Technical
Support.
-
Verify that the S2 LED is active (OR-U and OR-ST-OR-ST shown).
-
The S2 LED stays solidly lit when ISDN port S2 has established a connection. If the
S2 LED does not behave this way, contact Lucent Remote Access Technical
Support.
