InfoWest Megabit DSL - Modem Configuration

Customer DSL Configuration for PPP for Cisco 675 Router

Connect the blue management cable to the back of the Cisco 675 router and to the appropiate serial cable on the computer. Open up the terminal software (ie: Hyperterminal, Tera Term, Minicomm, Telix) and make sure the port speed is set to 9600. Hit enter when asked for the password. Then, type "enable", hit enter, and hit enter again when asked for the password. Then type in the following commands:

set nvram erase

write

set ppp restart disabled

set interface wan0-0 close

set ppp wan0-0 ipcp 0.0.0.0

set ppp wan0-0 login USERNAME

set ppp wan0-0 password PASSWORD

set ppp wan0-0 llc enabled

set nat enabled

set dhcp server enabled

set password exec USER-SELECTED-PASSWORD

set password enable USER-SELECTED-PASSWORD

set ppp restart enabled

Substitute your own passwords for USER-SELECTED-PASSWORD in both the exec and enable commands.

If this is to be a shared DSL connection, you will need to use NAT to hook up machines inside you network. This is done with the following commands:

set nat enabled

set interface eth0 address 10.0.0.1

set interface eth0 netmask 255.255.255.0

This will allow the use of IP addresses 10.0.0.2 - 10.0.0.254 for your internal machines. If you desire to have servers running, you will need to setup static NAT mappings in your DSL box with "set nat entry".

If DHCP is desired for easy configuration of client computers, this can be done with the following commands:

set dhcp sever enabled

set dhcp server pool 0 ip 10.0.0.2 enabled

set dhcp server pool 0 dns 204.17.177.10

set dhcp server pool 0 secondary 204.17.177.20

Finally, save everything and reboot:

write

reboot
