OVERVIEW
The MM701G is a versatile, high-speed
modem that extends your Ethernet LAN in a
back-to-back implementation or connects your
LAN to one or more service providers. It
employs G.shdsl technology for fixed-rate or
rate-adaptive, symmetric rates up to 2.3 Mbps
over single-pair wiring and allows for multiple
management options, including an easy to use Web-based interface. In addition, the MM701G
supports 32 simultaneous Bridge/Router or PPP sessions to the same or different service
providers over its G.shdsl WAN interface. For sizeable deployment, the MM701G provides the
ability to download pre-defined configuration files to the flash memory instead of manually
defining each and every value for all modems.
The MM701G also includes several useful protocols and services. If you require IP addresses
to be served dynamically on your LAN, usethe built-in DHCP server. If you need to update your
modem software, use the built-in TFTP client. If you require private IP addresses and need to
translate them into public IP addresses, use the built-in NAT function. If you need to exchange
IP routing information with another device, configure and implement RIP. For a complete list
of features, see Appendix A.
Use this guide to install and configure your MM701G. Before installation, be sure toverify your
shipping package contents and system requirements as described in the sections listed below.

MANAGING THE MODEM USING A
WEB BROWSER
You can manage the MM701G using a Web browser, console port, or a telnet session.
All of the MM701G features and functionality are accessible through the Web interface. In
contrast, there are some features not supported through the console port. For example, you can
enable or disable spanning tree through the Web interface, but not through the console port or
telnet. The same principle applies for deleting a WAN session and selecting ATM VBR as a
quality of service.
Refer to the following sections to take advantage of the Web interface.
To prevent losing your configuration changes, be sure to save them as described in “Saving
Changes” on page 38.
