Chapter 9 Starting the system

N0008587  01

After starting the BCM1000, you are ready to set the initial configuration parameters. 

The initial configuration defines your Business Communications Manager to the network. It also 
gives the system a unique identity and initial parameters. From that point, you can continue with 
the specific configurations for your system, which are described in Business Communications 
Manager Programming Operations Guide, and the other user guides for each optional application 
you choose to add to your system.

Obtain the following parameter values from an Internet Service Provider (ISP) or corporate 
network administrator.
•

initial IP address and netmask for each network interface

•

primary (and optional secondary) DNS servers

•

default next-hop router

•

fractional T1 channel numbers (if you are using fractional TI)

•

system name

•

WAN link protocol

•

frame relay DLCI / CIR (if applicable)

•

V.90 modem settings (North America only)

All BCM1000s are shipped with this default address:
•

IP:  10.10.10.1

•

Subnet:  255.255.255.0 

If you can use the default IP address, you can connect the BCM1000 to the LAN, as described in 

. This allows you to configure to the BCM1000 

system from your PC through the Unified Manager.

The initialization chapter of the Programming Operations Guide describes the 

information required by the Quick Start Wizard, which includes this information.

Before using this address on your network, check with your system 

administrator. If this address conflicts with the LAN settings, you can cause network 
damage if you connect the network without changing the IP address.
