Connect the power cord. 4. There are two ways to connect to the Access Gateway: a. Serial Connection: i. For AG 5600 and Metro, connect the RJ45 console cable (6ft. length) to the product’s console port and the DB9 female to the computer. For AG 2300 and AG 3100, connect the DB9 female-to-female (NULL) serial cable (6ft. length) between the product’s serial interface and your computer. ii. Start a HyperTerminal session to communicate with the AG via the product’s serial interface. Use the following configuration settings for your session: Bits per Second Data Bits Parity Stop Bits Flow Control 9600 8 None 1 None

| 2 | b. Subscriber-side Ethernet Connection: i. Connect a cross-over Ethernet cable between the product’s “subscriber port” and your computer’s Ethernet port. ii. Setup a SSH client to establish a SSH session to communicate with the NSE gateway via the administrative IP address after the Access Gateway finishes powering up. The administrative IP address is 172.30.30.172. IP Address 172.30.30.173 Netmask 255.255.0.0 Gateway 172.30.30.172 DNS (If Required) 4.2.2.1 5. Power up your computer and turn on the product. 6.

Access Gateway

| 3 | Configuration Note: The network side of the AG must be connected to a live network that can access the Internet, or you will not be able to receive the License Key from our server (Step 3). Step 1: Configuring IP and DNS information Static IP Configuration For an AG with a Static IP address, enter IP address and DNS information as shown in steps 1a and 1b. In case the AG is configured with DHCP Client, skip to Step 2: Entering location information, since the AG has already received the IP and DNS settings from the DHCP server. Step 1a: Entering your static IP Address Information IP Address Your Settings Examples Network IP Address 10.0.0.10 Subnet Mask 255.255.255.0 Default Gateway 10.0.0.1 Step 1b: Entering Your DNS Information DNS Parameter Your Settings Examples

| 5 | Sample Screen Responses IP and DNS Parameters PPPoE Client Configuration For an AG with network configuration set to PPPoE client, enter DNS information as shown in step 1c and PPPoE client configuration information as shown in step 1d. Please note that in case of PPPoE client, only the tertiary DNS server is configurable. It is assumed that the Primary and Secondary DNS servers are provided by the PPPoE server.

| 6 | Step 1c: Entering your DNS Information DNS Parameter Your Settings Examples Domain Name nomadix.com Host Name (no spaces) nse Primary DNS Server (not configurable) Secondary DNS Server (not configurable) Tertiary DNS Server (optional) 198.6.1.2 Step 1d: Entering your PPPoE Information PPPoE Parameter Your Settings Examples PPPoE Service Name NSE Echo Request Interval 30 Maximum non-responses 6 Authentication Username Test Authentication Password Test Select the PPP IP address configuration mode. If you select Dynamic, the IP address will be automatically assigned by the PPP server. If you select Static, please enter the IP address. TCP maximum MSS 1452
