3 Performing the Initial Configuration Connecting to Ethernet Ports You can connect one network interface to the network to use as the Nokia 100i gateway interface. You configure this interface during the system startup procedure, which is described in Performing the Initial Gateway Configuration in the Nokia IP VPN Gateway Configuration Guide. You can also connect the remaining LAN and WAN interface cables at this point, although you are not required to do so. After the power is turned on, the Ethernet link LEDs on the gateway and on remote equipment illuminate to indicate the connection. As data is transmitted, the activity LEDs on the gateway illuminate. Ethernet Cables Use IEEE 802.3 10 Base-T, 100 Base-TX CAT-5 unshielded twisted-pair CAT-5 Ethernet cables. To connect Ethernet devices: ! Use a straight-through RJ-45 cable to connect to a 10-Mbps or 100-Mbps hub or switch. ! Use a crossover RJ-45 cable to connect directly to a host. After you connect the network interfaces, continue with Performing the Initial Gateway Configuration in the Nokia IP VPN Gateway Configuration Guide. 36 Nokia 100i Installation Guide

Nokia 100i Installation Guide
Connecting to Ethernet Ports
You can connect one network interface to the network to use as the Nokia
100i gateway interface. You configure this interface during the system startup
procedure, which is described in
Performing the Initial Gateway
Configuration
in the
Nokia IP VPN Gateway Configuration Guide
.
You can also connect the remaining LAN and WAN interface cables at this
point, although you are not required to do so.
After the power is turned on, the Ethernet link LEDs on the gateway and on
remote equipment illuminate to indicate the connection. As data is
transmitted, the activity LEDs on the gateway illuminate.
Ethernet Cables
Use IEEE 802.3 10 Base-T, 100 Base-TX CAT-5 unshielded twisted-pair
CAT-5 Ethernet cables.
To connect Ethernet devices:
!
Use a straight-through RJ-45 cable to connect to a 10-Mbps or 100-Mbps
hub or switch.
!
Use a crossover RJ-45 cable to connect directly to a host.
After you connect the network interfaces, continue with
Performing the Initial
Gateway Configuration
in the
Nokia IP VPN Gateway Configuration Guide
