Configuring as a Router

Several options, described in “Static IP Routing” on page 7-4, define how the Campus-REX operates as a router. Use these options to:

•enter the address of a default gateway router

•set Encapsulation to HDLC or PPP:

–Use HDLC for most applications.

–Use PPP when the remote unit is a synchronous interface card, such as a V.35 card.

•enter up to three destination addresses, subnet masks and gateway addresses into the IP Static Routing Table

•enter the IP address and subnet mask for the Campus-REX

This section describes how to configure the Campus-REX as a router.

You can only configure the Campus-REX as a router through an ASCII terminal. Router options are not available through the LCD menus.
