Thank you for choosing the Mediatrix 3600 Series Digital Gateway. This Quick Start will help you to properly connect all of the cables to the Mediatrix 3600

and access its web interface. You will then be redirected to various Configuration Notes documents that provide in-depth configuration steps of specific

installation scenarios.

Please read the Mediatrix 3600 Hardware Installation Guide for detailed installation information and the Mediatrix 3600 Software

Configuration Guide for in-depth configuration information.

Step 1 Connecting Cables

The following describes how to connect the various cables to the Mediatrix 3600.

Before you begin, make sure that you have a working network connection. Then follow these steps to install the Mediatrix 3600.

Step 1. Before you begin, be sure that the Mediatrix 3600 is powered off.

Step 2. Create a WAN connection by connecting a 10/100 BaseT

Ethernet RJ-45 cable into the ETH5 connector of the Mediatrix

3600. Connect the other end to a router/switch with access to

your WAN.

Step 3. Create a LAN connection by connecting a 10/100 BaseT

Ethernet RJ-45 cable into any of the four, numbered Ethernet

connectors (labelled ETH1, ETH2, ETH3, and ETH4) of the

Mediatrix 3600. Connect the other end to your PC.

Step 4. CreateanISDNconnectionbyconnectingan E1RJ-45cable into

any of the two E1 / T1 connectors of the Mediatrix 3600 (the

Mediatrix 3632 model has two E1 / T1 connectors).

DIf you are using the Mediatrix 3600 with a PBX, connect the

other end of the cables to the PBX.

DIf you are using the Mediatrix 3600 with the PSTN, connect the other end of the cables to a proper PSTN outlet.

IP Address Discovery or Configuration

Step 2 IP Address Discovery or Configuration

The purpose of this section is to be able to contact the Mediatrix 3600's management interface to start with unit configuration.

Once the physical connection is complete, you will need to power on the Mediatrix 3600 and find out the IP address it is using. The Mediatrix 3600's WAN

IP address can be set either dynamically or statically. The default behaviour of the Mediatrix 3600 is to try to obtain a dynamic IP address through a DHCP

server.

You can also access the Mediatrix 3600 through its private LAN interface.

Dynamic WAN IP Address Discovery

Before connecting the Mediatrix 3600 to the network, Media5 strongly suggests that you reserve an IP address in your DHCP server for the unit you are

about to connect. DHCP servers reserve IP addresses for specific devices by using a unique identifier for each device. The Mediatrix 3600's unique

identifier is its media access control (MAC) address. The MAC address appears on the label located on the bottom side of the unit.

If you have not reserved a WAN IP address, you can discover which WAN IP address has been assigned

to the Mediatrix 3600 by either:

consulting your DHCP server's logs to find out details on the DHCP lease that was given to the

Mediatrix 3600.

using a network packet sniffer (e.g., Wireshark) to examine the DHCP messages exchanged

between the Mediatrix 3600 and your DHCP server while the Mediatrix 3600 boots up.

Step 1. If you need to discover the IP address of the Mediatrix 3600, install and start your network

packet sniffer.

Step 2. Connect the power cord on the back of the Mediatrix 3600 and then connect the other end

to an electrical outlet. The electrical outletmust be installed near the Mediatrix 3600 so that

it is easily accessible.

Step 3. Power on the Mediatrix 3600 by flipping the power switch. The Mediatrix 3600 will reboot

twice by itself.

Step 4. Proceed with accessing the Mediatrix 3600 web interface.

Default WAN Static IP Address Configuration

If there is no DHCP server in your network, then the WAN IP address can be configured statically. In that

case, you must set up your PC to use the private IP address 192.168.0.11.

Step 1. Connect the power cord on the back of the Mediatrix 3600 and then connect the other end

to an electrical outlet. The electrical outletmust be installed near the Mediatrix 3600 so that

it is easily accessible.

Step 2. Power on the Mediatrix 3600 by flipping the power switch. The Mediatrix 3600 will reboot

twice by itself.

Step 3. Insert a small, unbent paper clip into the RESET/DEFAULT hole located at the rear of the

Mediatrix 3600. The Power LED will start blinking, and after a few seconds, all the LEDS

will start blinking. Release the paper clip after all the LEDs start blinking and before they

all stop blinking (between 7-11 seconds).

This procedure is called a partial reset. After a partial reset is performed, the Mediatrix

3600’s WAN connection uses the default IP address 192.168.0.1. Refer to the Hardware

Configuration Guide, Chapter Powering on the Mediatrix 3600 for details on the partial

reset procedure.

Step 4. Proceed with accessing the Mediatrix 3600 web interface.

LAN Interface Access

You can access the Mediatrix 3600 via web and SNMP on the unit’s private LAN interface at the address 192.168.0.10. In that case, you must set up your

PC to use the private IP address 192.168.0.11.

Step 1. Connect the power cord on the back of the Mediatrix 3600 and then connect the other end to an electrical outlet. The electrical outlet must

be installed near the Mediatrix 3600 so that it is easily accessible.

Step 2. Power on the Mediatrix 3600 by flipping the power switch. The Mediatrix 3600 will reboot twice by itself.
