Net2Phone MAX 420 Hardware Setup
Identifying Your Ports
You need to be able to identify the MAX’s physical port numbers before you can
begin configuring its LAN settings.
The RJ-11 sockets are visible on the MAX’s rear panel. Figure 1, below, shows
the rear panel of a MAX with 4 ports.
Physical Port Numbering
Figure 1 illustrates the physical port numbering on the MAX 420’s rear panel.
These numbers are referenced by the MAX Web Manager when identifying ports,
setting up the MAX’s features and configuring Net2Phone calling accounts.
Figure 1
As the illustration shows, the ports are numbered from left to right. The left-most
port is Port #1 and the last is #4.
Ports also have logical numbers, used by the Routing Table, which are different
from their physical numbers. (See Section The Routing Table, in the MAX 420
User Guide).
