Chapter 2. Installing 3Com VCX IP Telecommuting Module
Static routing:
The network allowed to configure from is not on a network local to this
unit. You must configure a static route to it. Give the
IP address of the router on the network this unit is on.
The IP address of the router [0.0.0.0]: 10.47.3.1
Network address [10.47.0.0]: 10.10.0.0
Netmask [255.255.255.0]:
Then enter a password.
Password []:
Finally, you are asked if you want to reset other configuration.
Other configuration
Do you want to reset the rest of the configuration? (y/n) [n]
If you answer n, nothing is removed. If you answer y, you have three alternatives to select from:
1. Clear as little as possible. This is the alternative that is used if you answer n to the question above. Both the
preliminary and the permanent configurations will be updated with the configuration specified above.
2. Revert to the factory configuration and then apply the configuration specified above. This will affect the
permanent but not the preliminary configuration.
3. Revert to the factory configuration and empty all logs and then apply the configuration specified above. Both
the preliminary and the permanent configurations will be affected.
Select the update mode, which is what you want to remove.
Update mode (1-3) [1]:
All configuration is now complete. The installation program shows the configuration and asks if it is correct.
yes saves the configuration.
no runs the installation program over again.
abort ends the installation program without saving.
Now, eject the diskette from your PC and insert it into the Telecommuting Module’s floppy drive. Then power up
the Telecommuting Module and wait for it to boot. Then, finish configuration of the Telecommuting Module from
the computer/computers specified in the installation program.
Note that the diskette contains a command to erase certain parts of the configuration during boot when the
diskette is inserted. Make sure to eject it once the Telecommuting Module has booted up to avoid future loss of
data.
If you happen to forget the administrator password for the Telecommuting Module, you can insert the diskette into
the Telecommuting Module again and boot it. Note that if you selected anything but 1 as the update mode, you will
lose configuration when doing this.
Turning off a Telecommuting Module
Backup the Telecommuting Module configuration (just in case something should happen). You do this on the
Save/Load Configuration page under Administration. Once this is done, just turn the computer off. The computer
that runs 3Com VCX IP Telecommuting Module is specially designed so that you can switch it off without causing
any problems in the file structure.
