1-2 INA Module Installation and Configuration Guide
1. Arrange with your telecommunications service provider (telco) for a
T1/PRI line.
2. Have the telco provision the line so that some channels are assigned to
switched voice calls and the rest are assigned to one or more point-to-point
data connections.
3. Use the system administration console to assign the voice channels to the
MERLIN MAGIX switch and the data channels to the INA module router.
On the INA Module
Use any of the following tools to access ComOS and set up and administer the INA
module’s routing and data functions:
• INAWizard. The INAWizard performs the initial configuration of the module. The
program provides a step-by-step series of simple forms that allow easy entry of the
basic configuration settings. The INAWizard operates on most platforms running
Microsoft Windows 95/98, or Windows NT 4.0 and later. The wizard accesses the
INA module through a network connection to the module’s Ethernet interface. See
Chapter 4, "Using the INAWizard,” for more information.
• Command Line Interface. The command line interface provides full access and
control of all ComOS functions through a direct connection to the C0 port on the
front of the INA module, from a terminal or a PC or workstation used as a terminal.
Once an IP address has been assigned to the module’s Ethernet port, you can access
the command line interface via Telnet through a network connection to the port.
See Chapter 5, "Using the Command Line Interface,” for more information.
• PMVision™. This GUI based program can be used instead of the CLI to control and
configure the INA module. It can also be used to backup and restore the entire INA
configuration. PMVision operates on the same platforms as the INAWizard from any
workstation on the network. See Chapter 6, "Using PMVision,” for more
information.

The INA module (Figure 1-1) provides the following ports and LED indicators.
DS-1 Status LEDs. The red, green, and yellow LEDs indicate the status of the T1/PRI
line connected to the module. See “T1/PRI LEDs” on page 3-4.
C1 Serial Port. This RJ-45 connector is used to connect the INA module to the
MERLIN MAGIX system control unit and allows an up to 2400-baud dial-up connection
to the INA module’s command line interface. See “Connect a Serial Passthrough Cable”
on page 3-1.
