Configuring the IPmux-24

NOTE: It is strongly recommended that you refer to the IPmux-24 manual, “IPmux-24 TDM
Pseudowire Access Gateway Installation and Operation Manual”, when configuring the LE300-IP
Line Extender. All the configuration parameters are explained in the IPmux-24 manual. The
information below is simply a quick start guide and includes only the basic operating parameters.

GAI-Tronics pre-configures the IPmux-24 to default management and operating parameters during testing
of the LE300-IP Line Extender. The default settings allow the IPmux-24 to be managed using a PC
running a Web browsing application connected to one of the user LAN ports. Refer to “Accessing the
Web Page” section below.

If replacing an IPmux-24 with a new unit directly from the manufacturer (RAD), initial configuration of
the management parameters must be performed using an ASCII terminal connected to the rear panel
CONTROL port. Once the IPmux-24 host IP parameters are set, it is possible to access the unit via Telnet
or a Web browsing application connected to one of the user LAN ports.

The following is a summary of the steps necessary to configure an IPmux-24 for management. Refer to
the IPmux-24 manual for details.

1. Connect an ASCII terminal to the RS-232 control port of IPmux-24.

2. Log in as Superuser (su).

3. Enable or disable the IPmux-24 DHCP client.

4. Assign a Host IP address to the IPmux-24 for management of the device.

5. Assign a subnet mask and a default gateway.

6. Configure the SNMP communities.

Make sure that you save your settings at each configuration screen.

Note on Terminal Emulation Software: In Windows 7 you will no longer find the HyperTerminal
program. There are several alternatives to HyperTerminal such as:

HyperTerminal Private Edition – This is a commercial terminal emulation program that you can use

to communicate with serial COM ports, dial-up modems, and TCP/IP networks.

Putty – A free Telnet and SSH implementation for Windows. It also is an xterm terminal emulator.
