contact Cabletron Systems immediately. Refer to Getting Help.
Only qualified personnel should install the WPIM-T1/DDS. This
User’s Guide is intended for the experienced network
equipment installer.
NOTE
QuickSET or Local Management must be used to set up the
WPIM-T1/DDS in management before any connections are
made to the WAN. Follow the directions carefully.
NOTE
Some WPIMs require version 1.02 or greater of QuickSET to
participate and function correctly in your network. Contact
Cabletron Systems to obtain the latest version of QuickSET if
you do not have it. Refer to Getting Help in the Introduction for
more information.
Both the WPIM-T1/DDS and the host platform in which the
WPIM-T1/DDS is installed are static sensitive devices. Use a
grounding strap and follow all static-safe precautions during
installation. Failure to do so could result in damage to the
WPIM-T1/DDS and the host platform receiving it.
