BCM450 Installation Checklist and Quick Start Guide

Chapter 4

System configuration

The initial configuration defines your BCM450 system to the network. It also gives the system a

unique identity and initial parameters. Then you can continue with the specific configurations for

your system.

This chapter provides information on the following topics:

• Connect to the system on page 33

• BCM Web page downloads on page 34

• Software keycode on page 35

• System parameters on page 35

• DHCP server configuration on page 39

• MBM configuration on page 39

• Additional parameters on page 41

For more information about installing the BCM450 system (such as wiring charts and cable

diagrams), see Nortel Business Communications Manager 450 Installation—System

(NN40170-303)

Connect to the system

If you can use the default IP address, you can connect the BCM450 system to the LAN. Then you

can configure the BCM450 system, through Element Manager, from any PC connected to the

LAN.

If you can connect through a LAN connection, proceed to BCM Web page downloads on page 34.

If you must change the IP address (due to a conflict with your network), you can connect to the

BCM450 through the OAM port. See To connect to the system using the OAM port on page 33.

For more information, see Nortel Business Communications Manager 450 Installation—System

(NN40170-303)

To connect to the system using the OAM port

1 Connect one end of the Ethernet cable to the OAM port on the main unit.

2 Connect the other end of the Ethernet cable to the Ethernet port on your computer.

The DHCP-enabled computer is assigned IP address 192.168.1.2.

Warning: Before using the default 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 to the network without changing the IP address.
