SECTION 2 –GETTING STARTED Page 2.1
2GETTING STARTED
2.1 CONNECTING A PC TO THE CASE 6401
Use a standard UTP Patch lead to connect a PC to the 6401 via any of the 4 Ethernet ports on the rear
of the 6401. Using a standard browser (i.e. Firefox, Google Chrome, Internet Explorer etc.), enter the
IP address of the router. It’s possible some restrictions may have been configured within the router,
therefore if one port does not allow access then move your PC to one of the other ports until the logon
screen is retrieved.
If it’s not possible to get a response from any of the Ethernet ports, press the ‘reset’ switch on the rear
of the 6401 router in for 10 seconds which returns the 6401 to its default configuration.
The default IP Address of the Case 6401 router is 192.168.1.1
There are three operational modes, each with its own user ‘Logon’ name and password as shown
below. The menu options available will vary depending on the logon status of the user

OAM Cells
If a communication problem occurs on a PVC (no traffic going one way or the other), the permanent
virtual circuit (PVC) remains UP on the end-devices. Therefore, routing entries that were pointing to
that PVC remain in the routing table for a certain time and as a result, packets will be lost. The
solution to this problem is to use Operation and Maintenance (OAM) to detect such failures and allow
the PVC to disconnect if it is disrupted along its path. At regular intervals, end-devices (such as
routers) configured for OAM send loopback cells which must be looped in the network. This looping
point can be the machine at the end of the PVC (end-to-end loopback cells) or equipment on the path
(segment loopback cells)

Status
This indicates the status of the connection. The link can be up but your not connected to a service, in
which case the Link Light on the front will be ‘off’, but the link will show up in the statistics.
The status goes through –Three stages –disabled –Establishing –Link up.
Link Power Status- The ADSL (G.992.3) and ADSL2+ (G.992.5) recommendations define a power
management feature. Its primary application is to reduce the power consumption and the thermal
dissipation of ADSL chip sets.

Case Communications 6401 Rugged ADSL Router Manual –Rev 1.5
SECTION 3- DEVICE INFORMATION Page 3.5
When there is no user traffic, the ADSL links can switch from a high power mode to a low power
mode. If there is no user data for a long period of time, the link can switch further to a very low
power, idle state. Once there is user data, the link will quickly return to the full power state.
The recommendations define three power states: L0, L2, and L3.
State
Name
Description
L0
Full On
This is the normal operating state. The system must be in this state in order to achieve
the maximum data rate.
L2
Low
Power
The ADSL link is active, but a low-power signal conveying background data is sent from
the CO unit to the remote unit. Normal data is transmitted from the remote unit to the CO
unit. This state is entered when there is little data to be transmitted. The reduced rate
reduces the power consumption.
L3
Idle
When there is no user data to be transmitted, the system may enter the idle state. In this
state there is no signal transmitted on the link. The unit may be without power.
SNR Margin
SNR Margin could be thought of as a "buffer zone" which is there to protect your connection against
normal SNR fluctuations that can and do occur on a daily basis.
Once your SNR Margin starts to drop below 10dB on a traditional fixed rate line then you can
experience problems.
Attenuation (0.1 dB):
Line attenuation is in relation to the "loop loss" on your line. The lower this figure the better, and the
better chance you have of getting the faster speeds.
Attenuation is a term used to describe the reduction of the adsl signal strength that occurs on the
copper pair over distance and is measured in dB decibels. The further you are away from the
exchange the higher your attenuation figure will be as the signal loss increases.
Output Power (0.1 dBm):
This is the upstream power used by your 6401 Rugged ADSL router on the copper circuit.
Super Frames: Total number of super frames.
Super Frame Errors: Number of super frames received with errors.
RS Words: Total number of Reed-Solomon code errors.
RS Correctable Errors: Total number of RS with correctable errors.
RS Uncorrectable Errors: Total number of RS words with uncorrectable errors.

4QUICK START GUIDE
This Quick Start Guide gives you the minimum of information to allow you to get the router up
and running quickly. It assumes that the 6401 Rugged Router is running default configuration.
4.1.1 EQUIPMENT REQUIRED
PC - with web browser and an IP address within the subnet of 192.168.1.xx (where xx is any
address in the range apart from 1, which is the routers default address) use a subnet with a net mask
of 255.255.255.0 or /24.
Standard Ethernet cable –straight or crossover (The Case 6401 router will auto-detect)
Login On the PC use the web browser to connect to IP 192.168.1.1
You should see the following screen
Note: If you’re not able to obtain the logon screen try other Ethernet ports. If none of the Ethernet
ports display the Logon screen you may find the router has been configured with a different IP
Address. To ensure you have a connection to the port of the 6401 ‘Ping’ the routers default IP
address of 192.168.1.1. If no reply is received then use the reset switch on the rear of the router to
‘default’ the router back to its default settings.
On being asked for a login and password use admin (or support) for both entries
Having logged on the following page will displayed
On the left side select Advanced Setup to enter the configuration menu options.
