Collecting General Setup Information

Your Prestige requires the following system information. You can obtain all the pertinent information from your network administrator. Record this information into the worksheet as it becomes available. This worksheet will later be referred to as you configure your Prestige.

∙System Name - This is the name given to your Prestige for identification purposes. This name should be no more than 8 alphanumeric characters. Spaces are not allowed, but “-” and “_” are accepted. This name can be obtained remotely via the SNMP management protocol and will be displayed as the prompt when the user enters the Command Mode.

∙Route IP Field - For Internet access, you will need to enable the Route IP Field. See Chapter 4 for more details on configuring your Prestige for Internet access. To support Novell IPX, or Bridging, enable the appropriate protocol and reference the related chapters for detailed information.

You have now collected all of the general setup information you need. Make sure that you have entered all the values onto the worksheet before proceeding to the next section.

Collecting IDSL Information
