Compatible Systems 3500R manual WAN Interface Configuration, Physical Communications Settings

22 Chapter 6 - Basic Configuration Guide

CV: Use the DECnet Routing Dialog Box (under Global/DECnet Routing) and the DECnet: Ethernet Dialog Box.

TB: Use configure and set the Enabled, Area, and Node keywords in the DECnet Global section.

ϖNote: Setting DECnet on for any port with the command line also sets DECnet on globally. In CompatiView you must set a global parameter and a port-specific parameter.

Suggested for DECnet

Setting the parameters above should be adequate for most installations.

WAN Interface Configuration

This section covers the settings required for PPP (point-to-point) protocol operation of the RISC Router 3500R WAN interfaces. In general, the parameters listed here should be set for each WAN inter- face on which you plan to use PPP. Note that some WAN interfaces can be running PPP while others are running Frame Relay.

The V.35 interface can only be run synchronously, at rates up to 2 Mbps per second.

Physical Communications Settings

You may need to set the baud rate, sync/async operation, and other physical communications parameters for the WAN interface. These parameters will depend on the line communications device you are using.

CV: Use the Physical Configuration: WAN 0 Dialog Box.

TB: Use configure and the V.35 Interface WAN 0 (and/or other port numbers you wish to configure) section.
