ALL manuals can be found online at www.portmasters.com.

If you purchased your portmaster from PORTMASTERS.COM, it comes 
preconfigured with the IP address: 10.0.0.201. You can use PMVISION found at
ftp.portmasters.com/pub/le/software/java to configure the portmaster if the
ip address is known. If it is not known, follow thes instructions:

1. Using a terminal or a PC with Hyperterm. Set it to 9600-N-8-1.

2. Connect a null-modem cable to the terminal or PC. You can make 
   one with the following minimum pin configuration:

	DB25-F		DB25-F
	2	-	3
	3	-	2
	7	-	7
	8	-	20 
	20	-	8

3. Connect it to port C0. Make sure that DIP SWITCH 1 is up putting 
    the port in CONSOLE mode (9600 bps n-8-1, xon/xoff flow control).
    Dip switch 2 needs to be down. If up, it will try to NETBOOT..

4. Turn on the power, and after a post test you will see a "login:" prompt.

5. Login as "!root". Press ENTER for password. If there is a password and
    you don't know it, type "override" for the password. It will give
    you a 16 bit challenge string. Email this to override@portmasters.com.
    You will be emailed back a 16 digit override password.

6. Type the following commands after you've logged in:

	set password <your desired password>
	set address <the address you to assign it: xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx>
	set netmask <your netmask: default is 255.255.255.0>
	save all
	reset nic

7. Connect an ethernet cable from your network to the unit. Dip switch
    5 and 6 up indicated Twisted Pair, both down for COAX. The unit 
    should be pingable and telnettable now.

8. Use PMVISION from ftp.portmasters.com for advanced configuration.
