If you are configuring your router using a Telnet session, your computer must be running a Telnet software 
program.

■

If you connect a PC with Microsoft Windows, you can use a Windows Telnet application or simply run Telnet 
from the Star t menu.

■

If you connect a Macintosh computer, you can use the NCSA Telnet program supplied on the Netopia 
R2121 CD. You install NCSA Telnet by simply dragging the application from the CD to your hard disk.

You can per form all of the System Configuration activities for your Netopia R2121 through a local serial console 
connection using terminal emulation software, such as HyperTerminal provided with Windows95 on the PC, or 
ZTerm, included on the Netopia CD, for the Macintosh.

The Netopia R2121 back panel has a connector labeled “Console” for attaching the Router to either a PC or 
Macintosh computer via the serial por t on the computer. (On a Macintosh, the serial por t is called the Modem 
por t or the Printer por t.) This connection lets you use the computer to configure and monitor the Netopia R2121 
via the console screens.

To connect the Netopia R2121 to your computer for serial console communication, use the supplied dual 
console cable connector end appropriate to your platform:

■

one DE-9 connector end attaches to a PC

■

the mini-DIN8 connector end attaches to a Macintosh

■

the DE-9 end of the Console cable attaches to the Netopia R2121’s Console por t

If you are configuring your router via a 

terminal session, your computer must be running a standard terminal 

emulation or communications software program, such as those used with modems.

■

If you connect a PC with Microsoft Windows 95 or NT, you can use the HyperTerminal application bundled 
with the operating system.

■

If you connect a Macintosh computer, you can use the ZTerm terminal emulation program on the supplied 
Netopia R2121 CD.
