Office Router Wizard 2.0 Release Note
Introduction
The new Office Router Wizard 2.0 is now available for PortMaster(R)
ISDN Office Router models OR-U, OR-ST, and OR-AP. This Office Router
Wizard runs in the Java environment. Follow its step-by-step
instructions to configure a brand-new Office Router unit as a
functional ISDN router for Internet access.
The most powerful feature of the Office Router Wizard is its ease of
use. Once you enter ISDN information into the Wizard, the Office
Router is ready to connect to the Internet or to route to the
destination network. You do not need to define the IP address of the
destination gateway.
If you have any questions or suggestions about this version of the
Office Router Wizard, send email to orwiz-feedback@livingston.com.
Launching with an IP Address
If your Office Router OR-U, OR-ST, or OR-AP has an IP address defined,
launch the Wizard and then follow the instructions on the Wizard
to log in to the unit.
Launching without an IP Address
If the unit does not have an IP address defined, make sure that both the
Office Router and the Wizard reside on the same network before launching
the Wizard. The Office Router Wizard creates a BOOTP server and provides
the Office Router with the IP address that you entered. The Wizard then
connects to the Office Router and continues the configuration process. On
a small network, the BOOTP process can take 1 or 2 minutes. However, on
a large and more sophisticated network, the process can take 10 minutes or
longer.
Configuring Multiple Office Routers
The Wizard can configure one Office Router at a time.
If you have several Office Router units without IP addresses, you must
turn on one unit at a time for the BOOTP server to work. Once the unit is
completely configured, turn on the next one.
However, if all the Office Router units on the network have IP addresses
defined, you can use the Wizard to access any one of them to configure the
ISDN line.

Installing the Office Router Wizard on UNIX Systems
1. Download the following file from the Lucent Remote Access FTP site as
follows:
ftp ftp.livingston.com
binary
cd pub/le/software/java
get orwiz20.tar
quit
2. In your .cshrc, .kshrc, or .bashrc file, define the path for your java
interpreter. For example, for .cshrc:
set path=( /usr/local/lib/jre1.1.4/bin $path )
3. Untar the file as follows:
tar xvf orwiz20.tar
4. Run the installation program as follows:
./orinstall
If your path is defined correctly in the .cshrc file, the installation
program displays options for you to select "jre" or "java," or to
define your own Java interpreter path.
5. Follow the installation instructions. The default directory for the
Office Router Wizard is Lucent/ORWizard. The installation will create a
shell script for running the Wizard.
6. Launch the Office Router Wizard as follows:
./orwizard
7. If you want to run the Office Router Wizard from outside the
installation directory, make a copy of the orwizard file. Open the
file in a text editor and change the -cp argument to include the
full path to the orwizard.jar file as follows:
jre -cp /fullpath/orwizard.jar ORWizard
Installing the Office Router Wizard on Windows 95 or NT
1. Use the ftptool or launch the DOS window to download the
Office Router Wizard installation file into the C:\temp directory as
follows:
ftp ftp.livingston.com
binary
cd pub/le/software/java
get orwiz20.zip
quit
2. Make sure that your PC has an Unzip utility. Then click the downloaded
installation file and select the Unzip option.
3. To start the Office Router Wizard installation, click the
START_HERE.html file and follow those installation instructions.
4. After the installation is complete, launch the Office Router Wizard
by selecting the ORWizard shortcut from the Lucent folder under
Programs in your Start menu.
Limitations in Office Router Wizard 2.0
Only on-demand and continuous dialing are supported. Manual dialing is
not supported.
The Office Router Wizard creates a location for dialing out only.
It can not create a user entry for dialing in.
The location created by the Office Router Wizard initially sets the
destination address to be negotiated. If the ISP's server is also
configured to negotiate the address, an IPCP request or NAK loop occurs
and the connection fails.
The Office Router Wizard does not create input filter rules that allow
access to internal servers.
The Office Router Wizard does not support a network address translator (NAT).
The Windows installation does not always create the shortcut in the
Start menu.
If the ORWizard does not appear to launch, there may be a problem with
the run script orwizard or orwizard.bat. Open this file and verify
that the current directory ("/./") is not in the -cp argument. Example:
jre -cp /home/usr/Lucent/ORWizard/./orwizard.jar ORWizard $*
^ BAD - REMOVE
On WindowsNT systems, the links shown in the help pages do not work. This
problem will be fixed when Java 1.1.6 becomes widely available.
