INTRODUCTION
This chapter describes the SHARK™ IAD's Graphical User Interface (GUI).
This type of interface is commonly referred to as a WEB Browser interface
because it is implemented using an on board WEB Server. To access these
pages you must have a WEB Browser such as Internet Explorer™ or Netscape™
installed on your computer. Internet Explorer™ must be release 4.0 or higher
and the Netscape™ must be release 6.1 or higher. This is not the only interface
with which the SHARK™ IAD can be configured. There is also a Command
Line Interface (CLI) which can be accessed via a local RS232 Craft port or a
telnet session using the SHARK™ IAD's Ethernet port. Refer to the Using the
Command Line Interface (CLI) chapter of this manual for instructions on how to
use the CLI.
We will step through the configuration of the SHARK™ IAD accessing each
configuration page in logical order assuming a first time configuration.
The logical order for a first time configuration of the SHARK™ IAD is as
follows:
1. Establish communications with the SHARK™ IAD unit using the default IP
addresses. See the "Getting Started" chapter for initial connection and
workstation configuration.
2. Configure User Administration such as System name, Passwords, diagnostic
levels, etc.
3. Configure the Cross Connects. This function defines the traffic paths from
the Telco WAN side to the Router, LAN, V.35 Data Modules, and Voice
modules.
4. Configure the WAN T1 interfaces.
5. Configure IP/Router functions:
•
The FDL(Facilities Data Link)
•
Data pipes through the unit
•
IP addresses
•
DHCP Server functions
6. Configure all voice interfaces.
Even though these GUI pages can be accessed in a nearly infinitely random
order, this chapter guides you through the configuration process in the above
order. In addition, many of the SHARK™ IAD's pages can only be accessed if
certain parameters are enabled. Once you click on the save button the system
will access the next logical page based on your choices from the page just
configured.
