A blank screen with a flashing cursor will appear. Key in the command login admin.
Then press the Enter key.
Key in the admin command add bridge. Then press the Enter key.
Set the WAN 1 Layer 2 protocol. Key in the command set wan1 protocol followed by your protocol
choice: ppp (Point to Point Protocol) or HDLC (High Level Data Link Control). Then press the Enter key.
In our sample setup we chose to use Point to Point protocol so we keyed in the admin command set wan1
protocol ppp and then pressed the Enter key.
Set the bridge CRC(Cyclic Redundancy Check) to either on or off. When the IP-6610 bridge CRC is on
(enabled) , it will bring MAC CRC32 checksum with data. When the IP-6610 bridge CRC is off, it will
delete the MAC CRC32 checksum.
Key in the command set bridge crc followed by your choice of on or off. Then press the Enter key.
Note: If your server does not support CRC32, set the CRC to Off
When you are connecting a pair of IP 6610s we suggest that you set the CRC
to Off to eliminate the overhead of carrying the CRC32 on code. If you are using
another vendor’s bridge with the IP 6610, the CRC setting on both sides should be
consistent.
.
In our sample setup we chose to turn it off so we keyed in the admin command set bridge crc off and then
pressed the Enter key.
