Chapter 6 - Quickstart Instructions
This Quickstart section briefly discusses the major parameters that must be set in
order to use the router.
This section does not include information on setting up packet filters for using the
router as a Firewall. See the RouterView manual or Command Line manual
regarding IP packet filters for more information.
There are a number of parameter settings which are optional, in the sense that they
are not required for all installations. These settings are not covered in this section.
In this section:
RV = RouterView
CL = Command Line
v
Note : In order to successfully connect to an Internet Service Provider (ISP), you
must use router configuration parameters which will be provided by the technical
staff of the ISP. These parameters must include all IP addresses, WAN settings,
and any applicable authorization routines.
Please check with your ISP before configuring or changing the configuration of
your BR Router.

Note : Considerably more information on the meaning of the router’s parameters
is provided in the RouterView Reference Guide and the Command Line Reference
Guide. You should use this list as a starting point to look up more specific
information in the other documents. If you need more general information on IP,
IPX, AppleTalk, or wide-area protocols, see the Appendices in the RouterView
Reference Guide.
Ethernet Interface Configuration
Ethernet interfaces are considerably easier to set up than wide area interfaces since
there are no choices that need to be made regarding line communications devices
and their parameters. We recommend that you begin by configuring any Ethernet
interface parameters before proceeding to configure WAN interface parameters.
