Administering interfaces

9-5

The Console prompts you for the interface’s parameters. To use the value in brackets, press [Return] at the prompt.

2Enter the IP address of the interface.

3Enter the subnet mask of the network to which the interface is to be connected.

4Enter the cost value of the interface.

5Enter the type of IP interface: LIS.

6Enter the advertisement addresses for this interface. You can enter up to 32 advertisement addresses for each interface. (The maximum number on the LANplex system is 64.)

7Enter the LIS information:

For a LIS interface with SVCs, enter the ATM ARP server address, the maximum SVC count, the inactivity timer, the minimum holding time, and the ATM port associated with the interface. (You can also accept the defaults for these values.)

For a LIS interface with only PVCs, enter the ATM port and the PVCs associated with the interface. You can enter up to 51 PVCs for each interface. (The maximum number on the LANplex system is 64.)

LIS interface example with both PVCs and SVCs:

Enter IP address: 158.101.1.1

Enter subnet mask [255.255.0.0]: 255.255.255.0

Enter cost [1]:

Enter interface type (vlan,lis) [lis]:

Enter advertisement address(es) []: 158.101.112.1

Enter ATM arp server address

[00-0000-00-000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000-00]:47-0000-00-000000-00000000-00cc-000000000001-ff

Accept completed ATM address (yes,no) [yes]: Enter max. SVC count (0=no max.0) [0]:

Enter inactivity time (0=infinite, 10-10000) seconds [1200]: Enter min. holding time (0-10000) seconds [60]:

Select ATM port [1]:

Enter PVC(s) (VPI/VCI)[]: 1/32,1/200,1/3330
