Connect to the NetVanta 4305
1. Connect a VT100 terminal (or PC with VT100 emulation software) to the NetVanta
CONSOLE port using a DB-9 (male) to DB-9 (female) straight-through serial cable.
2. Configure the COM port with the following parameters:
Data Rate: 9600
Data Bits: 8
Parity Bits: None
Stop Bits: 1
Flow Control: None
3. Open a VT100 terminal session. (Please refer to the appropriate VT100 terminal software documentation for detailed instructions.)
4. Press the <Enter> key.
5. Enter enable at the > prompt.
6. Enter the password when prompted. The default password is password.
7. You are now at the # prompt. At the # prompt, enter config terminal to enter the Global configuration mode.
The NetVanta may be initially accessed and managed either via a console session or through a Telnet session. See Steps 1-7 above for console session instructions.
Initiating a Telnet session requires using a hub and two Ethernet cables (one for the
PC and one for the unit). The default Ethernet IP address is 10.10.10.1. Refer to
Configure a Telnet Session on page 3 to change Telnet session settings.
Configure the Ethernet Interface
1. At the (config)# prompt, enter interface eth 0/1 to access the configuration parameters for the Ethernet port located on the rear panel of the unit.
2. Enter ip address 10.10.10.1 255.255.255.0 to assign an IP address to the Ethernet port using a 24-bit subnet mask.
If you are accessing the NetVanta via Telnet, once you change this IP address, you will lose connection to the NetVanta. You must change the IP address of your PC before you can proceed.
ADTRAN recommends that you set the Ethernet speed and duplex to match the switch or hub it is plugged in to.
For example: (config-eth 0/1)#speed 100
(config-eth 0/1)#full-duplex
3. Enter no shutdown to activate the interface to pass data.
4. Enter exit to exit the Ethernet interface commands and return to the Global configuration mode.

The NetVanta Network Interface Modules (NIMs) use a slot/port notation for interface identification. All non-modular interfaces built into the base unit (e.g., the Ethernet port) are identified using 0 as the slot number.
Configure a Telnet Session
The following steps show how to access the Telnet configuration parameters and change the password.
The default password for initializing a Telnet session is password (all lower-case). For security purposes, change the password to something unique. For this example, replace the underlined word with a password of your choosing. The NetVanta supports five Telnet sessions (0-4).
1. Enter line telnet 0 to activate the configuration parameters for the Telnet sessions at the (config)# prompt.
2. Enter login to prompt the user for a Telnet access password.
3. Enter password word to create a login password for the Telnet sessions.
4. Enter exit to return to the Global configuration mode.
An enable security mode password must be defined before configured Telnet sessions are activated. See the following steps (Steps 5-7) for information on password configuration.
5. Verify that the prompt of your unit displays (config)#.
6. Enter enable password word to set the enable security mode password. or
7. Enter enable password md5 word to encrypt the enable password using MD5 encryption.
The enable command security level passwords are case sensitive.

Configure the Frame Relay Virtual Interface
The following sections outline configuring a frame relay virtual interface (labeled 1) using a single DLCI back to the corporate router (defined as DLCI 16).
The following steps assume the Global configuration mode is currently active. Verify the prompt of your unit displays (config)#.
Create the Interface and Define the Encapsulation
1. Enter interface fr 1 to create a frame relay virtual interface labeled 1.
2. Enter frame-relay lmi-type none (contact your service provider for your correct LMI-type) to configure signaling on the frame relay virtual interface 1. The default LMI type is ANSI (Annex D).
3. Enter no shutdown to activate the interface to pass data.
4. Enter exit to return to the Global configuration mode.
Create the PVC and Assign an IP Address
1. Enter interface fr 1.1 to create the first PVC assigned to frame relay virtual interface 1. This activates the configuration parameters for the PVC. Your prompt should now display Router(config-fr1.1)#.
2. Enter frame-relay interface-dlci 16 to assign DLCI 16 to this PVC. (DLCIs should be supplied by your network provider.)
3. Enter ip address 192.22.72.1 255.255.255.0 to assign an IP address of 192.22.72.1 for this PVC using a 24-bit subnet mask.
4. Enter exit to return to the Global configuration mode.
Configure the PPP Interface
The following steps outline configuring a PPP interface (labeled 1) to the NetVanta.
The following steps assume the Global configuration mode is currently active. Verify the prompt of the unit displays (config)#.
1. Enter interface ppp 1 to create a PPP interface labeled 1.
2. Enter ip address 192.22.72.1 255.255.255.0 to assign an IP address to the PPP interface using a
24-bit mask.
3. Enter no shutdown to activate the interface to pass data.
4. Enter exit to return to the Global configuration mode.
